At the European Investment Bank’s (EIB) annual meeting on the 15 May 2012 President Werner Hoyer underlined the Bank’s important role in supporting sustainable growth, innovation and jobs in Europe and beyond.

In 2011 the EIB provided its highest-ever financial contribution to the real economy with €60bn disbursed to its clients. At the end of 2011, the Bank’s outstanding loans amounted to around €395bn, more than the loan portfolio of all other multilateral financial institutions combined.
