European Parliament published on 14th April 2025 an analysis about the functioning, performance and future challenges of Invest EU. This document has been published.ahead of the Budg and ECON Commitees gathering and public hearing about InvestEU on 23rd. April 2025. 

InvestEU is the European Union’s flagship investment programme aimed at mobilising public and private financing to support sustainable infrastructure, innovation, SMEs, and social investment across the EU.

As of June 2024, it has successfully mobilized around EUR 280 billion in investments using a EUR 26.2 billion guarantee, but faces concerns over guarantee depletion, excessive burdens and lack of transparency.

The European Parliament plays a crucial oversight role, particularly in ensuring accountability, verifying impacts, and maintaining scrutiny amid proposed administrative simplifications put forward by the European Commission in its amending proposal of last February. This briefing has been prepared ahead of the ECON-BUDG public hearing scheduled for 23 April 2025.
