A strong response to the crisis

As an integral part of the EU’s response to the crisis, the EIB Group significantly stepped up its financial support in 2013 to promote growth and jobs in Europe.

The Group, comprising the EIB and the European Investment Fund, provided strong counter-cyclical support to the economy, with financing to the tune of EUR 75.1bn, an increase of 37% compared to 2012.

Access to finance for small and medium-sized enterprises reached an all-time high of EUR 21.9bn.
