Survival and economic prosperity alike demand a green transition.

There’s a reason why the EIF is working to strengthen the EIB Group’s role as the EU Climate Bank. In this area, action cannot wait.

Launched in 2025, Phase 2 of the EIB Group Climate Bank Roadmap reinforces this sense of urgency, while continuing the ambition to mobilise €1tn in green investments between 2021 and 2030.

From supporting early-stage innovators with breakthrough green technologies, to helping businesses scale their solutions, and ensuring all green sectors can access the financing they need – Europe is actively adapting, growing and future-proofing its green economy. And we are playing our part.

Our work this year ranged from financing innovative technological solutions that will define a greener, more sustainable world, to the infrastructure projects that will roll out these solutions across society and the economy, making energy cheaper and cleaner. Sustainability today is as much an environmental imperative as it is an attractive financial proposition.
