The EIB is rising to the challenge of the economic downturn. In 2008, total lending rose by 21% to EUR 57bn. In the next two years, the Bank will step up further its support for Europe’s economic recovery. In order to meet the new lending targets, as of 1 April the EIB’s subscribed capital was increased by some EUR 67bn to EUR 232.4bn. This increase was effected through a transfer from the EIB’s additional reserves to its capital. |
