It is the challenge of public health policy makers and health promotion managers to develop investable proposals for improving health equity through accessing InvestEU and other investment funds. This e-guide provides initial ideas, contacts and tools on how that can be done.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

InvestEU<\/h2>\n

InvestEU was originally announced in 2018 as the successor to the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI, or the \u2018Juncker Plan\u2019), which provided an EU budget guarantee to support investment and access to finance in the EU. InvestEU will bring together the European Fund for Strategic Investments and the 13 EU financial instruments that are currently available (2014-2020). InvestEU's suggested benefits are simplified and streamlined investment support and a single set of rules and procedures with one point of contact for advice. The main aim is to make EU funding simpler to access and more effective. InvestEU will run from 2021-2027.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

InvestEU consists of the InvestEU Fund, the InvestEU Advisory Hub, the InvestEU Portal, and blending operations. It will mobilise public and private investment through an EU budget guarantee of \u20ac26.1 billion that will back the investment projects of financial partners such as the European Investment Bank (EIB) Group, national promotional banks and other private finance institutions, thereby increasing their risk-bearing capacity, achieving the economies of scale, and increasing the visibility of EU action.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

What is InvestEU?<\/h4>\n

\"\"The InvestEU Programme<\/a> aims to give an additional boost to investment, innovation, and job creation in Europe. New is the Social Investment and Skills window of InvestEU which shall facilitate projects implementing<\/strong> the European Pillar of Social Rights<\/strong>. In particular, actions under this window shall aim at upwards convergence, reducing inequalities, and increasing resilience and inclusiveness through promoting employment, social enterprises, social inclusion, improving citizens' health, well-being and overall quality of life<\/strong> and supporting a just transition to a low carbon economy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\n
\n\t

The InvestEU Fund<\/strong> investments will come under four policy areas which represent important policy priorities for the Union and bring high EU added value. The windows and their budget guarantees are:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sustainable infrastructure - \u20ac9.9 billion<\/li>\n
  2. Research, innovation and digitisation - \u20ac6.6 billion<\/li>\n
  3. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) - \u20ac6.9 billion<\/li>\n
  4. Social investment and skills<\/strong> - \u20ac2.8 billion <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The InvestEU Advisory Hub<\/strong> will provide technical support and assistance for the preparation, development, structuring and implementation of financed projects, including capacity building.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The InvestEU Portal<\/strong> will bring together investments and project promoters through an easily-accessible and user-friendly database.<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    InvestEU\u2019s public guarantee is intended to help secure further investment from private and institutional investors The idea is that investors feel more secure in investing with the knowledge that money has been guaranteed to repay them if necessary. The guarantee will be provisioned at an average of 40%, meaning that \u20ac26,1 billion of the EU budget is set aside in case calls are made on the guarantee. InvestEU will also offer blending operations with grant funding. This blending will ensure complementarity with other EU funding programmes, notably for the European Structural Investment Funds under shared management or covered by the EU ETS Innovation Fund.  InvestEU Fund will be a market-based and demand-driven instrument. However, it will also be policy-focused. As a policy tool, by diversifying the sources of funding and promoting long term and sustainable finance, InvestEU will contribute to the strengthening of the Single Market while also contributing to the implementation of the European Green Deal, the European Green Deal Investment Plan, the Strategy on shaping Europe\u2019s digital future, and the European Pillar of Social Rights. Financing and investment operations shall be screened to determine whether they have an environmental, climate or social impact.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>

    \n\t\t\t\t\tA key element of InvestEU \u2013 and a new addition in comparison to EFSI \u2013 is the dedicated Social Investment and Skills policy window. Support under the Social Investment and Skills window will facilitate financing of projects that strengthen the social dimension of the European Union (e.g., as described in the European Pillar of Social Rights<\/a>). In particular, actions under this window shall aim at upwards convergence, reducing inequalities (including gender), and increasing resilience and inclusiveness through promoting employment including entrepreneurship and self-employment, social enterprises and social economy and innovation, social inclusion, improving citizens' health, well-being and overall quality of life and supporting a just transition to a low carbon economy.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\nThe window will target investments in social enterprises, microfinance, training, social housing, social innovation, integration of migrants, and other sectors within the social sphere. Projects may target education, training, and health and long-term care, amongst other related themes. The window will have a special emphasis on inclusion of vulnerable people and their access to quality services. Where applicable and possible, supported services will be delivered at the local level, in line with the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities\u2019 approach of moving from institutional care to community-based care.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\nThe window will particularly target projects with a reasonable degree of (prospective) financial viability but which are not (sufficiently) delivered by the market due to higher risks, lack of collateral, not achieving optimal scale without public sector support or other market barriers. The supported projects should add additionality (e.g., not crowd out market-based offerings of the targeted social services). Given that many social sector projects are too small to attract interest from traditional private investors, grouping or \u2018bundling\u2019 of smaller projects will be encouraged. For example, bundling healthcare reforms occurring in different locations under the jurisdiction of a national or regional authority.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\nOrganisations within EU member states are available to apply for the funding via their national managing authority and can receive technical assistance through the InvestEU Advisory Hub. In addition to financial products provided by traditional financial intermediaries, providing in-kind services may also qualify organisations, such as education institutions, or health and social care providers, to benefit indirectly from the EU guarantee through an implementing partner. Combination with contributions from donors, philanthropists, foundations and other private sector actors will also be allowed.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\nThe InvestEU Fund shall seek to strengthen private sector engagement to help deliver on the European Pillar of Social Rights, supporting, inter alia, quality employment, education and training, health, social inclusion and active participation in society. InvestEU operations will support projects from private sector organisations active in the social investment space (or who could directly benefit from social investment). Such organisations include, among others, SMEs, large corporations, cooperatives, foundations, venture philanthropists, social impact investors, education and training institutions. Private sector actors will also have the possibility to contribute to the InvestEU Fund either through direct contributions (donations, repayable and non-repayable forms of support) for increasing the provisioning of the EU guarantee or through contributions to and\/or co-investments into the projects or financial intermediaries supported indirectly by the InvestEU Fund.<\/p>\n\u00a0<\/p>\nFor more information about InvestEU and the Social Infrastructure and Skills window, please click here<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
