Financial needs addressed by EFSI
Possible complementarities with
Cataloniaâs ERDF OP
Direct financing of big
projects (above 25
MEUR)
ď§Only a few big projects have been
identified and are in progress.
ď§Many of the projects identified do not
fulfil the EFSI conditions.
ď§There are difficulties to find private
investors for big projects of public
interest.
ď§ERDF OP does not include big
investment projects (exceptions!)
Financing of investment
platforms
ď§Future launching of an Investment
Platform for energy efficiency projects
for ESCO.
ď§In the future there could be other
thematic investment platforms
ď§Investment platforms are not included
in the ERDF OP. But they could be
included in the future.
Financing through
financial intermediaries
and through operations
with NPB
ď§The ICF and other financial institutions
are providing financing to SME with EIB
funds.
ď§The ERDF OP promotes financial
instruments to SME. Currently there are
no complementarities between EFSI and
ERDF at the instrument level. There
could be in the future.

on circular economy.
