Amendment 25 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4
(4) Throughout the economic and financial crisis, the Union has made efforts to promote growth, in particular through initiatives set out in the Europe 2020 strategy that put in place an approach for smart, environmentally sustainable and socially inclusive growth. The European Investment Bank ('EIB') has also strengthened its role in instigating and promoting investment within the Union, partly by way of an increase in capital in January 2013. Further action is required to ensure that the investment needs of the Union are addressed and that the liquidity available on the market is used efficiently and channelled towards the funding of viable and environmentally sustainable investment projects.

Recital 7
(7) The European Council on 18 December 2014 concluded that "fostering investment and addressing market failure in Europe is a key policy challenge" and that "The new focus on investment, coupled with Member States' commitment to intensifying structural reforms and to pursuing growth-friendly fiscal consolidation, will provide the foundation for growth and jobs in Europe and calls for setting up a European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI) in the EIB Group with the aim to mobilise 315 billion euro in new investments between 2015 and 2017".deleted

Amendment 37 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
(10) The purpose of the EFSI should be to help resolve the difficulties in financing and implementing productive investments in the Union and to ensure increased access to financing. It is intended that increased access to financing should be of particular benefit to small and medium enterprises. It is also appropriate to extend the benefit of such increased access to financing to mid- cap companies, which are companies having up to 3000 employees. Overcoming Europe's current investment difficulties should contribute to strengthening the Union's economic, social and territorial cohesion and to achieving the EUʼs 2050 goals on climate change, reducing and optimising use of natural resources, and protecting biodiversity.

Committee: ENVI
Amendment 61 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 12
(12) Many micro, small and medium enterprises, as well as mid-cap companies, across the Union require assistance to attract market financing, especially as regards investments that carry a greater degree of riskwith greater environmental and societal value added. The EFSI should help these businesses to overcome capital shortages by allowing the EIB and the European Investment Fund ('EIF') to provide direct and indirect equity injections, as well as to provide guarantees for high-quality securitisation of loans, and other products that are granted in pursuit of the aims of the EFSI.

Committee: ENVI
Amendment 62 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 13
(13) The EFSI should be established within the EIB in order to benefit from its experience and proven track record and in order for its operations to start to have a positive impact as quickly as possible. The work of the EFSI on providing finance to micro, small and medium enterprises and small mid-cap compancommitted to environmentally and socially sustainable and inclusive activities should be channelled through the European Investment Fund ('EIF') to benefit from its experience in these activities.

Committee: ENVI
Amendment 74 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 14
(14) The EFSI should target projects delivering high societal and economic value. In particular, the EFSI should target projects that promote green job creation, long- termsustainable growth and competitivenessthe green economy. The EFSI should support a wide range of financial products, including equity, debt or guarantees, to best accommodate the needs of the individual project. This wide range of products should allow the EFSI to adapt to market needs whilst encouraging private investment in the projects. The EFSI should not be a substitute for private market finance but should instead catalyse private finance by addressing market failures so as to ensure the most effective and strategic use of public money. The requirement for consistency with State aid principles should contribute to such effective and strategic use.

Committee: ENVI
Amendment 86 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 15
(15) The EFSI should target projects with a higher risk-return profile than existing EIB and Union instrumentsclear environmental and societal value added to ensure additionality over existing operations. The EFSI should finance sustainable projects across the Union, including in the countries most affected by the financial crisis. The EFSI should only be used where financing is not available from other sources on reasonable terms.

Committee: ENVI
Amendment 88 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 16
(16) The EFSI should target investments that are expected to be economicnvironmentally, socially and technically viable, which may entail a degree of appropriate risk, whilst still meeting the particular requirements for EFSI financing provided these are clearly intended to support the green and circular economy.

Committee: ENVI
Amendment 95 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 17
(17) Decisions on the use of the EFSI support for infrastructure and large mid- cap projects should be made by an Investment Committee. The Investment Committee should be composed of independent experts who are knowledgeable and experienced in the areas of investment projects in the green and circular economy. The Investment Committee should be accountable to a Steering Board of the EFSI, who should supervise the fulfilment of the EFSI's objectives. To effectively benefit from the experience of the EIF, the EFSI should support funding to the EIF to allow the EIF to undertake individual projects in the areas of small and medium enterprises and small mid-cap companies with high environmental and societal value added.

Proposal for a regulation
Recital 21
(21) Provided that all relevant eligibility criteria are fulfilled, Member States may use European Structural Investment Funds to contribute to the financing of eligible projects that are supported by the EU guarantee.

Amendment 113 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 26
(26) Alongside the financing operations that will be conducted through the EFSI, a European Investment Advisory Hub ('EIAH') should be created. The EIAH should provide strengthened support for project development and preparation across the Union, by building on the expertise of the Commission, the EIB, national promotional banks and the managing authorities of the European Structural and Investment Funds. This should establish a single point of entry for questions related to technical assistance for investments within the Union.deleted

Amendment 122 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 29
(29) To partially finance the contribution from the Union budget, the available envelopes of the Horizon 2020 – the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation 2014-2020, provided by Regulation (EU) No 1291/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council2, and the Connecting Europe Facility, provided by Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council3, should be reduced. Those programmes serve purposes that are not replicated by the EFSIvised to aid only high environmental and societal value added research and development projects. However, the reductvision of both programmes to finance the guarantee fund is expected to ensure a greater investment in certain areas of their respective mandates green and circular economy than is possible through the existing programmes. The EFSI should be able to leverage the EU guarantee to multiply the financial effect within those areas of research, development and environmental innovation and sustainable transport, telecommunications and, energy saving and efficiency and renewable energy infrastructure compared to if the resources had been spent via grants within the planned Horizon 2020 and Connecting Europe Facility programmes. It is, therefore, appropriate to redirect part of the funding presently envisaged for those programmes to the benefit of EFSI. __________________ 2 Regulation (EU) No 1291/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 establishing Horizon 2020 - the Framework Programme for Research and Innovation (2014-2020) and repealing Decision No 1982/2006/EC (OJ L 347, 20.12.2013, p. 104). 3 Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2013 establishing the Connecting Europe Facility, amending Regulation (EU) No 913/2010 and repealing Regulations (EC) No 680/2007 and (EC) No 67/2010 (OJ L 348, 20.12.2013, p. 129).

Amendment 126 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 31
(31) Within the Union, there are a significant number of potentially viable projects capable of promoting the green and circular economy that are not being financed due to a lack of certainty and transparency with respect to such projectsinformation. Often, this is because private investors are not aware of the projects or have insufficient information to make an assessment of the investment risks. The Commission and the EIB, with support from the Member States, should promote the creation of a transparent pipeline of current and future investment projects in the Union and areas of the green and circular economy suitable for investment. This 'project pipeline' should ensure that information is made publicly available regarding investment projects on a regular and structured basis to ensure that investors have reliable information on which to base their investment decisions.

Amendment 129 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 32
(32) Member States have also begun work at national level on establishing and promoting project pipelines for environmentally innovative projects of national significance. The information prepared by the Commission and the EIB should provide links to the accompanying national project pipelines.
2015/03/31
Committee: ENVI
Amendment 131 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 33
(33) Although the projects identified under the project pipeline may be used by the EIB in the identification and selection of environmentally sustainable EFSI supported projects, the project pipeline should have a broader scope of identifying environmentally sustainable projects across the Union. This scope may include projects that are capable of being fully financed by the private sector or with the assistance of other instruments provided at European or national level. The EFSI should be able to support financing and investment to environmentally sustainable projects identified by the project pipeline, but there should be no automaticity between inclusion on the list and access to EFSI support and the EFSI be conferred with discretion to select and support projects that are not included on the list.

(35) In order to ensure an appropriate coverage of the EU guarantee obligations and to ensure the continued availability of the EU guarantee, the power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission with respect to the adjustment of the amounts to be paid in from the general budget of the Union and to amend Annex I accordingly. It is of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level. The Commission, when preparing and drawing up delegated acts, should ensure a simultaneous, timely and appropriate transmission of relevant documents to the European Parliament and to the Council.deleted

Amendment 139 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 36
(36) Since the objectives of this Regulation, namely to support investments in the Union and to ensure increased access to financing for companies having up to 3000 employees, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States by reason of the disparities in their fiscal capacity to act but can rather, by reason of its scale and effects, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve those objectives,deleted
