New step in implementing revision of InvestEU programme

Brussels, 10/06/2026 (Agence Europe) – European Commission and EIB Group signed, on Wednesday 10 June, a new financial arrangement that will make it possible to increase the European financing allocated under the InvestEU programme, in line with the legislative revision agreed in autumn 2025 (proposal ‘Omnibus II’ – see EUROPE 13716/19). While that legislative revision initially provided for an increase in private investment of €50 billion, the EIB now expects a financial impact of close to €70 billion.
