In 2021, the Evaluation function in the EIB Group's Inspectorate General (IG/EV) presented a record number of reports to the EIB and EIF Boards of Directors as compared to previous years, most of which fed directly into strategic Bank decisions, such as evaluations of: - Climate change adaptation, directly informing the preparation of the EIB Adaptation Plan; - Special Activities, helping the Bank deliberate on its future business mix; and - Climate awareness bonds, informing debates on reflecting climate considerations in pricing, which is particularly relevant for the EIB's climate ambitions. The approval of the EIB Group Evaluation Policy further signified the institution's commitment to accountability, learning and transparency. In 2022, three main themes will be in focus: - the EIB Group's support for SMEs; -the EIB's advisory support in Cohesion regions; and - the EIB's support for water and sanitation outside the European Union. The evaluation work programme is continuously evolving to reflect the Group's priorities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The EU has committed to a joint recovery centred on green and digital transition. The extent to which this will mitigate the risks of rising inequalities and rising divergences across firms and regions depends not least on support for cohesion. Data coming from the EIB Investment Survey provides a unique tool to gain insights on how non-financial corporates in different regions are behaving. EIBIS information sheds new light on investment needs and gaps, financing requirements as well as firm activity on innovation, digitalization and climate change. EU Cohesion Policy aims to strengthen economic, social and territorial cohesion across the European Union and to correct imbalances between countries and regions. The green and digital transition are key priorities of Cohesion Policy for the next years. Cohesion support 2021-2027 is focused on five key policy objectives to support growth: - A more competitive and smarter Europe - A greener, low-carbon transition towards a net zero carbon economy - A more connected Europe by enhancing mobility - A more social and inclusive Europe - A Europe closer to citizens by fostering the sustainable and integrated development of all types of territories. EU funds will support investment across these policy objectives with a particular focus on a smart and green Europe. However, the COVID-19 pandemic risks deepening divergences between citizens, territories and firms. Firms across the EU will need to adapt to the post-pandemic environment and megatrends, notably digitalization and climate change, to stay competitive looking ahead.

But the war in Ukraine is causing new concerns. With interest rates rising in many countries and bond funding becoming more expensive, a significant number of banks are worried about rising financing costs. These issues and more are covered in the new Finance in Africa report, based on an annual survey of banks across the continent and supported by Making Finance Work for Africa, an initiative helping more people get loans across the continent. We surveyed 70 banks in sub-Saharan Africa from April to June in 2022 to find out if the war is hurting their business and to learn their views on climate lending, access to finance for women and the accelerating digitisation of the financial sector.
