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 and reducing regional disparities should contribute to strengthening the Union's economic, social and territorial cohesion.

Proposal for a regulation
Article 5 – paragraph 2 a (new)

2a. The EFSI shall target projects with a higher risk profile than existing EIB and Union instruments so as to ensure additionality over existing normal operations. The EFSI shall support projects which fulfil the following criteria: a) the pursuit of the Union objective of smart, sustainable, long-term, cohesive and inclusive growth and having high societal and economic value, the highest possible positive impact on quality job creation, and EU added value; b) a focus on operations that could not have been carried out using the Union budget or by the normal activity of the EIB, nor financed by the market; c) be viable from an economic perspective, according to a comprehensive assessment in which not only the project itself but also its overall impact on the economy and its ability to trigger subsequent investments, such as from the private sector, is to be carried out; d) would not have received financing from any other existing Union fund due to a non-availability of the required financing in the market; e) has a higher risk profile than projects normally supported under existing EIB activity, taking account of the fact that real additionality can only be ensured when financial resources are concentrated on projects not financed otherwise; the design of the appropriate measures is to be elaborated under the procedures of Article 3(1);
