New MSCA Financial Guide

European Research Executive Agency (REA) has published a new handbook, the so-called MSCA Financial Guide. The guide replaces MSCA-specific provisions in the Annotated Grant Agreement (AGA).

The document covers all MSCA schemes. Using examples, it explains:

• Categories of participants,
• Rules and obligations related to the recruitment of researchers and secondment of staff,
• Continuous and period reporting,
• Eligibility of unit contributions,
• Other aspects for management of MSCA projects, including possibilities of increasing the maximum grant amount, transfer of the grant agreement to another host institution in MSCA PF projects as well as eligibility of publication fees.
