European Investment Bank Group Activity Report 2022

Our flagship report shows how the European Investment Bank stepped up to the challenges of 2022. From our ongoing work rebuilding Ukraine's damaged towns and cities and our support for refugees, to our unwavering commitment to the global threat of climate change. The report illustrates how our backing for energy efficiency and renewable power is part of the solution to the European Union's energy security needs and its climate goals. It also shows how our support for innovation and breakthrough technologies brings tangible benefits to Europe's economic competitiveness, to its climate goals, and its strategic autonomy. The report also showcases the contribution of EIB Global, our new international development branch, to greater wellbeing around the world.



About European Investment Bank

The European Investment Bank Group is the EU bank and the world's biggest multilateral lender. We finance sustainable investment in small and medium-sized enterprises, innovation, infrastructure, and climate and environment. We have financed Europe's economic growth for six decades and are at the forefront of EU crisis response, leading the world in climate investment and backing development of the first COVID-19 vaccine. We are committed to triggering €1 trillion in investment in climate and environmental sustainability to combat climate change by the end of this decade. About 10% of all our investment is outside the European Union, where our EIB Global branch supports Europe's neighbours and global development.
