Paragraph 1
1. Welcomes the launch of the European Fund for Strategic Investments and urges the EIB to ensure the additionality of its financing operations over ongoing EU programmes and traditional EIB activities; is worried that many projects selected during the warehousing phase would have found access to financing under normal conditions and do not meet the additionality requirement; recalls that the EFSI guarantee was meant to enable the EIB to take more risks and to move away from its triple-A-rating mantra; warns that it will be extremely vigilant in monitoring compliance with this criterion; highlights the need for more transparency, which requires improved reporting practices; furthermore, calls on the EIB to make a transparent and sound use of the scoreboard.
