The Fund has a different risk profile of financial instruments. It provides additional funding sources and target projects with higher social and economic value.

Objectives

Funding would be channeled to viable projects with a real added value for the European social market economy, from a wide range of sectors including:
– Strategic infrastructure (digital, transport and energy investments in line with EU policies)
– Education, research and innovation
– Investments boosting employment, in particular through SME funding and measures for youth employment
– Environmentally sustainable projects

The Fund will support strategic investments on a European scale in infrastructure, especially in high-speed networks and energy networks, as well as in transport infrastructure, particularly in the industrial centers in education, research and innovation, as well as in renewable energy and energy efficiency. Southern European countries are especially concerned.

Typical projects that could potentially benefit from financing could include:
– A programme for the construction and rehabilitation of public buildings aimed at improving their energy efficiency, currently held up by lack of funding.
– Transport links between EU countries facing delays due to high upfront project costs.
– Open-access, laser-based research infrastructure in countries currently in need of financing to avoid delays in implementation.
– A programme to upgrade school facilities in countries facing implementation challenges and lack of funding.
– Investment in water infrastructure, including wastewater treatment plants and water supply facilities, hampered by a lack of financing.
– Other projects supporting, for example, the expansion and upgrading of freight and passenger capacities in ports and airports; dedicated rail-connections between important airports and urban centres; greening projects in the area of maritime transport; alternative fuel-infrastructure along major roads; 3rd generation bio refineries; etc.
