CERTIFICATION OF THE ACCOUNTS

The annual accounts of the European Development Fund for the year 2015 have been prepared in accordance with Title IX of the Financial Regulation of the 11th European Development Fund and with the accounting principles, rules and methods set out in annex to the financial statements.

I acknowledge my responsibility for the preparation and presentation of the annual accounts of the European Development Fund in accordance with Article 20 of the Financial Regulation of the 11th European Development Fund.

I have obtained from the authorising officers and from the EIB, who guarantee its reliability, all the information necessary for the production of the accounts that show the European Development Fund's assets and liabilities and the budgetary implementation.

I hereby certify that based on this information, and on such checks as I deemed necessary to sign off the accounts, I have a reasonable assurance that the accounts present a true and fair view of the financial position of the European Development Fund in all material aspects.

IMPLEMENTING AND ACCOUNTING FOR THE EDF RESOURCES

1.   BACKGROUND

BACKGROUND

The European Union (hereinafter referred to as the EU) has cooperative relations with a large number of developing countries. The main objective is to promote economic, social and environmental development, with the primary aim of reducing and eradicating poverty in the long-term, by providing beneficiary countries with development aid and technical assistance. To achieve this, the EU draws up, jointly with the partner countries, cooperation strategies and mobilises the financial resources to implement them. These EU resources allocated to development cooperation come from three sources:

| — | The EU budget; |
| --- | --- |

—

The EU budget;

| — | The European Development Fund; |
| --- | --- |

—

The European Development Fund;

| — | The European Investment Bank. |
| --- | --- |

—

The European Investment Bank.

The European Development Fund (hereinafter referred to as the EDF) is the main instrument for providing EU aid for development cooperation to the African, Caribbean and Pacific (hereinafter referred to as the ACP) States and Overseas Countries and Territories (hereinafter referred to as the OCTs).

The EDF is not funded by the EU budget. It is established by an internal agreement of the Representatives of the Member States, sitting within the Council, and managed by a specific committee. The European Commission (hereinafter referred to as the Commission) is responsible for the financial implementation of the operations carried out with EDF resources. The European Investment Bank (hereinafter referred to as the EIB) manages the Investment Facility.

During the period 2014-2020, the geographic aid granted to ACP States and OCTs will continue to be mainly funded by the EDF. Each EDF is usually concluded for a period of around five years and is governed by its own Financial Regulation which requires the preparation of financial statements for each individual EDF. Accordingly, financial statements are prepared separately for each EDF in respect of the part that is managed by the Commission. These financial statements are also presented in an aggregated way so as to provide a global view of the financial situation of the resources for which the Commission is responsible.

The Internal Agreement establishing the 11th EDF was signed by the participating Member States, meeting within the Council, in June 2013 (1). It came into force on 1 March 2015. In order to assure continuity between the end of the 10th EDF and the entry into force of the 11th EDF, the Commission proposed transitional measures, known as the Bridging Facility (BF) (2). The BF is presented under the 11th EDF.

At the same time the 10th EDF Financial Regulation (3) was amended and the new Financial Regulation applicable to the transition period was adopted (4). They entered into force on 30 May 2014. On 2 March 2015 the Council adopted the 11th EDF Financial Regulation (5) and the Implementation Rules (6). They entered into force on 6 March 2015.

Within the framework of the ACP-EU Partnership Agreement, the Investment Facility was established. This Investment Facility is managed by the EIB and is used to support private sector development in the ACP States by financing essentially — but not exclusively — private investments. The Facility is designed as a renewable fund, so that loan repayments can be reinvested in other operations, thus resulting in a self-renewing and financially independent facility. As the Investment Facility is not managed by the Commission, it is not consolidated in the first part of the annual accounts — the financial statements of the EDF and the related report on financial implementation. The financial statements of the Investment Facility are included as a separate part of the annual accounts (part II) to provide a full picture of the development aid of the EDF (7).

2.   HOW IS THE EDF FUNDED?

HOW IS THE EDF FUNDED?

The European Council of 2 December 2013 adopted the Multi-annual Financial Framework for 2014-2020. In this context, it was decided that geographical cooperation with the ACP States would not be integrated into the EU budget (budgetised), but would continue to be funded through the existing inter-governmental EDF.

The EU budget is annual and according to the budgetary principle of annuality, expenditure and revenue are planned and authorised for one year. Unlike the EU, the EDF is a fund operating on the basis of multiannuality. Each EDF establishes an overall fund to implement development cooperation during a period of usually five years. As resources are allocated on a multiannual basis, the allocated funds may be used over the period of the EDF. The lack of budget annuality is highlighted in the budgetary reporting, where the budgetary implementation of the EDFs is measured against the total funds.

The EDF resources are ‘ad hoc’ contributions from the EU Member States. Approximately every five years, Member State representatives meet at intergovernmental level to decide on an overall amount that will be allocated to the fund and to oversee its implementation. The Commission then manages the fund in accordance with the Union policy on development cooperation. Since Member States have their own development and aid policies in parallell to the Union policy, the Member States must coordinate their policies with the EU to ensure they are complementary.

In addition to the above mentioned contributions, it is also possible for Member States to enter into co-financing arrangements or to make voluntary financial contributions to the EDF.

3.   YEAR-END REPORTING

YEAR-END REPORTING

3.1.   ANNUAL ACCOUNTS

ANNUAL ACCOUNTS

It is the Accounting Officer's responsibility to prepare the annual accounts and ensure that they present a true and fair view of the financial position of the EDF.

The annual accounts are presented as follows:

Part I: Funds managed by the Commission

| (i) | Financial statements of the EDF |
| --- | --- |

(i)

Financial statements of the EDF

| (ii) | Report on financial implementation of the EDF |
| --- | --- |

(ii)

Report on financial implementation of the EDF

Part II: Funds managed by the EIB

| (i) | Financial statements of the Investment Facility |
| --- | --- |

(i)

Financial statements of the Investment Facility

In addition, since 2014 when a trust fund has been created under the EDF (see 3.2 below), its accounts, as well as the consolidated (EDF and trust fund) accounts are presented below.

3.2

The annual accounts are adopted by the Commission by 31 July of the subsequent year and presented to the European Parliament and to the Council for discharge.

3.2.   BÊKOU TRUST FUND

BÊKOU TRUST FUND

In accordance with Article 187(1) of the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the Union (EU FR) and Article 42 of the Financial Regulation applicable to the transition period, the Commission is allowed to create Union Trust Funds for external actions under an agreement concluded with other donors. These trust funds may be created for emergency, post-emergency and thematic actions. In accordance with Article 187(6) of the EU FR, the accounting officer of the Union Trust Fund shall be the Accounting Officer of the Commission.

The first multi-donor EU Trust Fund called Bêkou, was established on 15 July 2014, by the EU and Germany, France and the Netherlands, with the aim to promote the stabilisation and reconstruction of the Central African Republic. The maximum duration of the Bêkou Trust fund is 60 months.

As the Bêkou Trust fund was established under the EDF, its annual accounts are consolidated with the EDF accounts.

4.   AUDIT AND DISCHARGE

AUDIT AND DISCHARGE

4.1.   AUDIT

AUDIT

The EDF annual accounts and resource management are overseen by its external auditor, the European Court of Auditors (hereinafter referred to as the ECA), which draws up an annual report for the European Parliament and the Council.

4.2.   DISCHARGE

DISCHARGE

The final control is the discharge of the financial implementation of the EDF resources for a given financial year. The European Parliament is the discharge authority of the EDF. This means that following the audit and finalisation of the annual accounts it falls to the Council to recommend and then to the European Parliament to decide whether to grant discharge to the Commission for the financial implementation of the EDF resources for a given financial year. This decision is based on a review of the accounts and the annual report of the ECA (which includes an official statement of assurance) and replies of the Commission, and also following questions and further information requests to the Commission.

1.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1.   LEGAL BASIS AND ACCOUNTING RULES

LEGAL BASIS AND ACCOUNTING RULES

In accordance with Article 46 of the EDF Financial Regulation, the EDF financial statements are prepared on the basis of accrual-based accounting rules that are based on International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS). The accounting rules adopted by the Accounting Officer of the Commission are applied by all the Institutions and bodies of the EU in order to establish a uniform set of rules for accounting, valuation and presentation of the accounts with a view to harmonising the process for drawing up the financial statements and consolidation, as required by Article 152 of the EU Financial Regulation. These rules are also applied to the EDF while taking into account the specific nature of its activities.

1.2.   ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

The overall considerations (or accounting principles) to be followed when preparing the financial statements are laid down in EU accounting rule 1 ‘Financial Statements’ (the same as in IPSAS 1): fair presentation, accrual basis, going concern, consistency of presentation, aggregation, offsetting and comparative information. The qualitative characteristics of financial reporting according to Article 144 of the EU Financial Regulation are relevance, reliability, understandability and comparability.

1.3.   BASIS OF PREPARATION

BASIS OF PREPARATION

1.3.1.   
  Currency and basis for conversion

Currency and basis for conversion

The annual accounts are presented in millions of euros, the euro being the EU's functional and reporting currency. Foreign currency transactions are translated into euros using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Year-end balances of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted into euros on the basis of the exchange rates applying on 31 December.

1.3.2.   
  Use of estimates

Use of estimates

In accordance with IPSAS and generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements necessarily include amounts based on estimates and assumptions by management based on the most reliable information available. Significant estimates include, but are not limited to; amounts for employee benefit liabilities, provisions, financial risk on inventories and accounts receivables, accrued income and charges, contingent assets and liabilities, and degree of impairment of intangible assets and property, plant and equipment. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Changes in estimates are reflected in the period in which they become known.

1.4.   BALANCE SHEET

BALANCE SHEET

1.4.1   
  Intangible assets

Intangible assets

Acquired computer software licences are stated at historical cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. The assets are amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives of intangible assets depend on their specific economic lifetime or legal lifetime determined by an agreement. Internally developed intangible assets are capitalised when the relevant criteria of the EU accounting rules are met. The costs capitalisable include all directly attributable costs necessary to create, produce, and prepare the asset to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management. Costs associated with research activities, non-capitalisable development costs and maintenance costs are recognised as expenses as incurred.

1.4.2   
  Property, plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment

All property, plant and equipment are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition or construction of the asset. Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits or service potential associated with the item will flow to the entity and its cost can be measured reliably. Repairs and maintenance costs are charged to the statement of financial performance during the financial period in which they are incurred. Land and works of art are not depreciated as they are deemed to have an indefinite useful life. Assets under construction are not depreciated as these assets are not yet available for use. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight-line method to allocate their cost to their residual values over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

| Type of asset | Straight line depreciation rate |
| --- | --- |
| Buildings | 4 % to 10 % |
| Plant and equipment | 10 % to 25 % |
| Furniture and vehicles | 10 % to 25 % |
| Fixtures and fittings | 10 % to 33 % |
| Computer hardware | 25 % to 33 % |
| Other | 10 % to 33 % |

Gains or losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds less selling expenses with the carrying amount of the disposed asset and are included in the statement of financial performance.

Leases

Leases

Leases of tangible assets, where the entity has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership, are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s commencement at the lower of the fair value of the leased asset and the present value of the minimum lease payments. The interest element of the finance lease payment is charged to expenditure over the period of the lease at a constant periodic rate in relation to the balance outstanding. The rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included as liabilities. The assets held under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the asset's useful life and the lease term.

Leases where the lessor retains a significant portion of the risks and rewards inherent to ownership are classified as operating leases. Payments made under operating leases are charged to the statement of financial performance on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

1.4.3   
  Impairment of non-financial assets

Impairment of non-financial assets

Assets that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation/depreciation and are tested annually for impairment. Assets that are subject to amortisation/depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and its value in use.

Intangible assets and property, plant and equipment residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at least once per year. An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount. If the reasons for impairments recognised in previous years no longer apply, the impairment losses are reversed accordingly.

1.4.4   
  Financial assets

Financial assets

The financial assets are classified in the following categories: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss; loans and receivables; held-to-maturity investments; and available for sale financial assets. The classification of the financial instruments is determined at initial recognition and re-evaluated at each balance sheet date.

(i)   Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the short term or if so designated by the entity. Derivatives are also categorised in this category. Assets in this category are classified as current assets if they are expected to be realised within 12 months of the balance sheet date. During this financial year, the entity did not hold any investments in this category.

(ii)   Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables

Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. They arise when the entity provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of trading the receivable. They are included in non-current assets, except for maturities within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

(iii)   Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments

Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that the entity has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity. During this financial year, the entity did not hold any investments in this category.

(iv)   Available for sale financial assets

Available for sale financial assets

Available for sale financial assets are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. They are classified as either current or non-current assets, depending on the time period in which the entity expects to dispose of them which is usually the remaining maturity at the balance sheet date.

1.4.5   
  Pre-financing amounts

Pre-financing amounts

Pre-financing is a payment intended to provide the beneficiary with a cash advance, i.e. a float. It may be split into a number of payments over a period defined in the particular contract, decision, agreement or the basic legal act. The float or advance is either used for the purpose for which it was provided during the period defined in the agreement or it is repaid. If the beneficiary does not incur eligible expenditures, he has the obligation to return the pre-financing advance to the entity. The amount of the pre-financing is reduced (wholly or partially) by the acceptance of eligible costs (which are recognised as expenses) and amounts returned.

At year-end, outstanding pre-financing amounts are measured at the amount(s) initially recognised on the balance sheet less amounts returned and eligible expenses, including estimated amounts where necessary, incurred during the period.

1.4.6   
  Receivables and recoverables

Receivables and recoverables

Receivables and recoverables are carried at original amount less write-down for impairment. A write-down for impairment is established when there is objective evidence that the entity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. The amount of the write-down is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the recoverable amount. The amount of the write-down is recognised in the statement of financial performance.

1.4.7   
  Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents are financial instruments and classified as available for sale financial assets. They include cash at hand, deposits held at call or at short notice with banks, and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.

1.4.8   
  Provisions

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the entity has a present legal or constructive obligation towards third parties as a result of past events, it is more likely than not that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions are not recognised for future operating losses. The amount of the provision is the best estimate of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date. Where the provision involves a large number of items, the obligation is estimated by weighting all possible outcomes by their associated probabilities (‘expected value’ method).

1.4.9   
  Payables

Payables

A significant amount of the payables of the entity are not related to the purchase of goods or services — instead they are unpaid cost claims from beneficiaries of grants or other EU funding. They are recorded as payables for the requested amount when the cost claim is received. Upon verification and acceptance of the eligible costs, the payables are valued at the accepted and eligible amount.

Payables arising from the purchase of goods and services are recognised at invoice reception for the original amount and corresponding expenses are entered in the accounts when the supplies or services are delivered and accepted by the entity.

1.4.10   
  Accrued and deferred income and charges

Accrued and deferred income and charges

At the end of the accounting period, accrued expenses are recognised based on an estimated amount of the transfer obligation of the period. Revenue is also accounted for in the period to which it relates. At year-end, if an invoice is not yet issued but the service has been rendered, the supplies have been delivered by the entity or a contractual agreement exists, an accrued income will be recognised in the financial statements. In addition, at year-end, if an invoice is issued but the services have not yet been rendered or the goods supplied have not yet been delivered, the revenue will be deferred and recognised in the subsequent accounting period.

1.5.   STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

1.5.1   
  Revenue

Revenue

Revenue from non-exchange transactions are taxes and transfers because the transferor provides resources to the recipient entity without the recipient entity providing approximately equal value directly in exchange. Transfers are inflows of future economic benefits or service potential from non-exchange transactions, other than taxes.

Exchange revenue from the sale of goods and services is recognised when the significant risk and rewards of ownership of the goods are transferred to the purchaser. Revenue associated with a transaction involving the provision of services is recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the transaction at the reporting date.

1.5.2   
  Expenses

Expenses

Exchange expenses arising from the purchase of goods and services are recognised when the supplies are delivered and accepted by the entity. They are valued at original invoice amount. Futhermore, at the balance sheet date expenses related to the service delivered during the period for which an invoice has not yet been received or accepted are recognised in the statement of financial performance.

Non-exchange expenses relate to transfers to beneficiaries and can be of three types: entitlements, transfers under agreement and discretionary grants, contributions and donations. Transfers are recognised as expenses in the period during which the events giving rise to the transfer occurred, as long as the nature of the transfer is allowed by regulation or a contract has been signed authorising the transfer; any eligibility criteria have been met by the beneficiary; and a reasonable estimate of the amount can be made.

When a request for payment or cost claim is received and meets the recognition criteria, it is recognised as an expense for the eligible amount. At year-end, incurred eligible expenses due to the beneficiaries but not yet reported are estimated and recorded as accrued expense.

1.6.   CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

1.6.1   
  Contingent assets

Contingent assets

A contingent asset is a possible asset that arises from past events and of which the existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity. A contingent asset is disclosed when an inflow of economic benefits or service potential is probable.

1.6.2   
  Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities

A contingent liability is a possible obligation that arises from past events and of which the existence will be confirmed only by the occurrence or non-occurrence of one or more uncertain future events not wholly within the control of the entity; or a present obligation that arises from past events but is not recognised because: it is not probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits or service potential will be required to settle the obligation or, in the rare circumstances where the amount of the obligation cannot be measured with sufficient reliability.

1.7.   CO-FINANCING

CO-FINANCING

Co-financing contributions received fulfil the criteria of revenues from non-exchange transactions under condition and they are presented as payables to Member States, non-Member States and others. The EDF is required to use the contributions to deliver services to third parties or is otherwise required to return the assets (the contributions received). The outstanding payables relating to co-financing agreements represent the co-financing contributions received less the expenses incurred related to the project. The effect on net assets is nil.

Expenses relating to co-financing projects are recognised as they are incurred. The corresponding amount of contributions is recognised as operating revenue and the effect on economic result of the year is nil.

Many contracts provide for payments of advances before the commencement of works, deliveries of supplies or the provision of services. Sometimes the payment schedules of contracts foresee payments on the basis of progress reports. Pre-financing is normally paid in the currency of the country or territory where the project is executed.

The timing of the recoverability or utilisation of the pre-financing governs whether it is disclosed as a current or a non-current pre-financing asset. The utilisation is defined by the project's underlying agreement. Any repayments or utilisation due within twelve months of the reporting date are disclosed as current pre-financing. As many of the EDF projects are long-term in nature, it is necessary that the related advances are available for more than one year. Thus some pre-financing amounts are shown as non-current assets, but since the Eighth and the Ninth EDFs are winding down, most pre-financing is current.

The increase in non-current pre-financing by EUR 44 million compared to 31 December 2014 is mainly explained by the implementation of new contracts under the 11th EDF and the extension of 2 significant contracts under the Ninth EDF.

The decrease in current pre-financing by EUR 298 million compared to 31 December 2014 is mainly explained by a number of clearings under the Ninth and 10th EDF.

2.3.1.   
  Guarantees received in respect of pre-financing

Guarantees received in respect of pre-financing

Guarantees are held to secure pre-financing and are released when the final claim under a project is paid. At 31 December 2015 the nominal value of guarantees received by the EDF in respect of pre-financing amounts to EUR 198 million. At year-end, an in-depth review of guarantees has been performed to comply with the accounting standards. Following this review, guarantees in respect of pre-financing with a nominal value of EUR 444 million have been written-off as not belonging to the EDF but to the contracting authority.

For efficiency reasons, the single treasury covering all the EDFs is allocated to the 11th EDF (9); this leads to operations between the various EDFs, which are balanced out in the liaison accounts between the various EDF balance sheets. Liaison accounts are presented only in the individual EDFs.

The overall increase in cash and cash equivalents is mainly explained by the advance payment of the first 2016 contributions by some Member States in December 2015.

It should be noted that there are STABEX funds held by beneficiary ACP States and thus not included on the EDF balance sheet. STABEX is the acronym for a EU compensatory finance scheme to stabilise export earnings of the ACP countries. Once the Commission and the beneficiary (ACP) State reach agreement on how the STABEX funds are to be utilised, a transfer convention is signed by both parties. In accordance with the provisions of Article 211 of the Lomé IV Agreement (11) (as revised), the funds are transferred into an interest bearing double signature account (Commission and Beneficiary State) opened in the name of the ACP State. The funds remain in these double signature accounts until a Framework of Mutual Obligations (FMO) justifies a transfer for a project. The Commission's Authorising Officer retains the power of signature over the account in order to ensure that the funds are disbursed as intended. The funds in the double signature accounts are the property of the ACP State and are consequently not recorded as assets in the EDF accounts. The transfers to these accounts are recorded as STABEX payments. See also note 3.2.1 for more information.

This is the estimate of amounts that will probably have to be paid out more than 12 months after the year-end in relation to the liquidation phase and a probable legal case with the Centre de Development of Enterprise.

The liquidation phase, to be managed by a Curator, will only comprise residual administrative tasks, for example keeping the archives of the CDE, replying to any administrative formality, or managing residual litigations that could not have been settled up to 31 December 2016. This phase will be financed by the EDF and at the date of preparation of the EDF financial statements, a very rough budget estimate of the total costs needed for the passive phase is EUR 2,6 million. An amount of around EUR 1,2 million should be as well taken into account in case the CDE will be condemned by the International Labour Organisation Tribunal to pay indemnities for the three persons currently in litigation. See also note 4.2.1 for more information.

Payables include cost statements received by the EDF relating to its grant activity. They are recorded for the amount being claimed from the moment the demand is received. The same procedure applies to invoices and credit notes received under procurement activities. The cost claims concerned have been taken into account for the year-end cut-off procedures. Following the cut-off entries, estimated eligible amounts have been recognised in the statement of financial performance.

Included under this heading are amounts owed to suppliers as well as amounts payable to public bodies and third states.

The decrease of EUR 222 million compared to the previous reporting period relates primarly to a EUR 224 million decrease in payables to third states.

2.9.1.2   Co-financing payables

Co-financing payables

The total non-current and current co-financing payables decreased by EUR 60 million compared to the previous reporting period.

During 2015, new co-financing contributions were received from the France (EUR 5 million), United Kingdom (EUR 1,5 million) and other countries.

The total non-current and current co-financing payables were decreased by EUR 69 million in order to recognise revenue and expenses related to co-financing projects (see 3.2.2 and 3.3.2).

At year-end, an assessment is made concerning eligible expenses incurred by beneficiaries of EDF funds but not yet reported. Following these cut-off calculations, estimated eligible amounts are recorded as accrued charges.

In 2015 the Commission refined its methodology for estimating accrued charges for the budget support contracts. Had this refinement not been made, the operating expenses would have been EUR 3 545 million instead of EUR 3 671 million and the accrued charges amount would have been EUR 126 million lower.

The fund capital represents the total amount of contributions from Member States for the relevant EDF fund as laid down in each of the Internal Agreements. The uncalled funds represent the initial allocation not yet called up from Member States.

The called fund capital represents the amount of the initial allocations which have been called up for transfer to the treasury accounts by the Member States.

The capital of the Eighth and the Ninth EDF has been called up and received in its entirety.

The activities of the Bridging Facility were financed through decommitted amounts from previous EDFs (see 2.13 Called fund capital transfers between active EDFs).

2.13

The Council decision establishing the Bridging Facility stipulates that the funds committed under the Bridging Facility should be deducted from the shares of the Member States' contributions set out in Article 1(2)(a) of the Internal Agreements of the Eighth, Ninth and 10th EDF after the entry into force of the 11th EDF Internal Agreement. (2)

2

The 11th EDF internal Agreement entered into force on 1 March 2015 and total fund capital has been decreased by EUR 1 595 million (Eighth EDF — EUR 676 million, Eighth EDF — EUR 727 million, 10th EDF — EUR 192 million).

As the Internal Agreement establishing the 11th EDF enters into force, fund capital presented under the 11th EDF has been recognised in line with the Agreement.

This heading includes the resources transferred between the active EDFs.

Since the entry into force of the Cotonou Agreement, all the unspent funds in previous active EDFs are transferred to the most recently opened EDF after decommitment. The resources transferred from other EDFs increase the appropriations of the receiving fund and reduce the appropriations of the fund of origin. Funds transferred to the performance reserve of the 10th and 11th EDFs can be committed only under specific conditions set out in the Internal Agreements.

In 2015 funds committed under the Bridging Facility of EUR 1 595 million came back to the performance reserve of the 10th EDF and they were used to refund capital of the Eighth, Ninth and 10th EDF (see 2.10 Called fund capital — active EDFs).

2.10

At year-end the non-mobilisable Performance Reserve of the 10th EDF is EUR 84 million while the one of the 11th EDF is EUR 65 million.

The EDF operating expenditure covers various aid instruments and takes different forms, depending on how the money is paid out and managed.

3.3.2.   
  Operating expenses co-financing

Operating expenses co-financing

These are the expenses incurred on co-financing projects in 2015. As the co-financing contributions received fulfil the criteria of revenues from non-exchange transactions under condition, a corresponding amount of contributions has been recognised as operating revenue (see 3.2.2).

This heading includes support expenditure, i.e. the administrative costs related to the programming and implementation of the EDFs. This includes expenses for preparation, follow-up, monitoring, and evaluation of projects as well as expenses for computer networks, technical assistance etc.

The variation in the administrative costs between 2014 and 2015 (EUR 91 million) is due to a change in accounting methodology in 2014. This new methodology had a one-time impact on decreasing the amount of administrative costs.

Overall, the amount of guarantees held to secure EDF assets under a project has increased in 2015. However, in 2015, more guarantees have been linked to contracts managed with an indirect mode. In such case, the beneficiary of the guarantee is not the EDF but the contracting authority. By comparison, in 2014, those guarantees belonging to a contracting authority other than the EDF amounted to 273 million while they amount to 723 million in 2015.

4.1.1.   
  Performance guarantees

Performance guarantees

Performance guarantees are sometimes requested to ensure that beneficiaries of EDF funding meet the obligations of their contracts with the EDF.

4.1.2.   
  Retention guarantees

Retention guarantees

Retention guarantees concern only works contracts. Typically, 10 % of the interim payments to beneficiaries are withheld to ensure that the contractor fulfils his/her obligations. These withheld amounts are reflected as amounts payable. Subject to the approval of the contracting authority, the contractor may instead submit a retention guarantee which replaces the amounts withheld on interim payments. These received guarantees are disclosed as contingent assets.

Centre for the Development of Enterprise

The ACP-EU Council of Ministers agreed in June 2014 ‘to proceed with the orderly closing of the CDE’, and at the same time ‘to ensure that the private sector support projects implemented by the CDE in ACP countries and regions are completed in full’. For this purpose, the ACP-EU Council of Ministers granted a delegation of powers to the ACP-EU Committee of Ambassadors to take this matter forward with a view to adopt the necessary decisions.

The ACP-EU Committee of Ambassadors authorised, by Decision No 4/2014 of 23/10/2014, the Executive Board of the CDE to take, with immediate effect, all appropriate measures to prepare for the closure of the CDE. As stipulated in article 2 of that Decision, the Executive Board was instructed to contract a Curator to prepare and implement a closure plan. That closure plan ‘should permit the closure of the CDE in an orderly manner, while respecting the rights of all involved third parties, and ensuring that the ongoing private sector support projects are completed either by the CDE itself or by an entity to whom their management can be assigned’. The closure plan is to envisage the finalisation of the winding-up of the CDE by 31 December 2016.

The curator has submitted to the CDE Executive Board, at the end of June 2015, a definitive strategic plan, with a budget and work-plan, which reflects the outcome of the social dialogue. The budget of the definitive strategic plan, approved by the CDE Executive Board, had been the basis for the Commission's proposal for a Financing Decision, that has been adopted after having received the opinion of the EDF Committee for a total of EUR 18,2 million. Subsequent to the adoption of that Financing decision, a grant agreement was concluded in December 2015 between the CDE and the Commission which provides the necessary financing for the realization of CDE's assets and full settlement of its liabilities. The implementation of the definitive strategic plan started on 1 January 2016. Following the revision of the Annex III of the Cotonou Agreement, currently under negotiation between the EU Council and the ACP, the CDE will enter into its passive phase during which it will solely exist for the needs of its liquidation — as from 1 January 2017 and for a period that will last up to 5 years. See also note 2.7 for more information.

The amount disclosed below is the budgetary RAL (‘Reste à Liquider’) less related amounts that have been included as expenses in the 2015 statement of financial performance. The budgetary RAL is an amount representing the open commitments for which payments and/or de-commitments have not yet been made. This is the normal consequence of the existence of multi-annual programmes.

At 31 December 2015 the budgetary RAL totalled EUR 6 809 million (2014: EUR 5 889 million). In December 2015, EUR 1 316 million were committed to finance the new Emergency EU Trust Fund for stability and addressing root causes of illegal migration in Africa (EU Trust Fund Africa). When excluding the effect of that exceptional event, the RAL would amount to EUR 5 493 million, which represents a reduction of EUR 396 million compared to the previous year.

5.   FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The following disclosures with regard to the financial risk management of the EDF relate to the treasury operations carried out by the Commission on behalf of the EDF in order to implement its resources.

5.1.   RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The rules and principles for the management of the treasury operations are laid down in the 11th EDF Financial Regulation and in the Internal Agreement.

th

As a result of the above regulation, the following main principles apply:

| — | The EDF contributions are paid by Member States in special accounts opened with the bank of issue of each Member State or the financial institution designated by it. The amounts of the contributions shall remain in those special accounts until the payments of EDF need to be made. |
| --- | --- |

—

The EDF contributions are paid by Member States in special accounts opened with the bank of issue of each Member State or the financial institution designated by it. The amounts of the contributions shall remain in those special accounts until the payments of EDF need to be made.

| — | EDF contributions are paid by Member States in EUR, while the EDF's payments are denominated in EUR and in other currencies, including less well-known ones. |
| --- | --- |

—

EDF contributions are paid by Member States in EUR, while the EDF's payments are denominated in EUR and in other currencies, including less well-known ones.

| — | Bank accounts opened by the Commission on behalf of the EDF may not be overdrawn. |
| --- | --- |

—

Bank accounts opened by the Commission on behalf of the EDF may not be overdrawn.

In addition to the special accounts, other bank accounts are opened by the Commission in the name of the EDF, with financial institutions (central banks and commercial banks), for the purpose of executing payments and receiving receipts other than the Member State contributions to the budget.

Treasury and payment operations are highly automated and rely on modern information systems. Specific procedures are applied to guarantee system security and to ensure segregation of duties in line with the Financial Regulation, the Commission’s internal control standards, and audit principles.

A written set of guidelines and procedures regulate the management of the treasury and payment operations with the objective of limiting operational and financial risk and ensuring an adequate level of control. They cover the different areas of operation, and compliance with the guidelines and procedures is checked regularly.

All contributions are held in EUR, and other currencies are purchased only when they are needed for the execution of payments. As a result the EDF's treasury operations are not exposed to currency risk.

5.3.   INTEREST RATE RISK

INTEREST RATE RISK

The EDF does not borrow money and as a consequence it is not exposed to interest rate risk.

Interest is accrued on balances it holds on its different banks accounts. The Commission, on behalf of the EDF, has therefore put in place measures to ensure that interest earned regularly reflect market interest rates as well as their possible fluctuation.

Overnight balances held on commercial bank accounts are remunerated on a daily basis. The remuneration of balances on such accounts is based on variable market rates to which a contractual margin (positive or negative) is applied. For most of the accounts the interest calculation is linked to a market reference rate and is adjusted to reflect any fluctuations of this rate. As a result no risk is taken by the EDF that its balances be remunerated at rates lower than market rates.

Funds in the categories non-investment grade and lower medium grade relate mainly to Member State contributions to the EDF paid to the special accounts opened by Member States in accordance with Article 22(3) of the EDF FR. According to this regulation the amount of such contributions must remain in those special accounts until the payments need to be made.

non-investment grade

lower medium grade

Most of the EDF's treasury resources are kept, in accordance with the EDF FR, in the ‘special accounts’ opened by Member States for the payment of their contributions. The majority of such accounts are held with Member States' treasuries or national central banks. These institutions carry the lowest counterparty risk for the EDF (exposure is with its Member States).

For the part of the EDF's treasury resources kept with commercial banks in order to cover the execution of payments, replenishment of these accounts is executed on a just-in-time basis and is automatically managed by the Commission treasury's cash management system. Minimum cash levels, proportional to the average amount of daily payments made from it, are kept on each account. As a consequence the amounts kept overnight on these accounts remain constantly at low levels which ensure the EDF's risk exposure is limited.

In addition, specific guidelines are applied for the selection of commercial banks in order to further minimise counterparty risk to which the EDF is exposed.

All commercial banks are selected by call for tenders. The minimum short-term credit rating required for admission to the tendering procedures is Moody's P-1 or equivalent (S&P A-1 or Fitch F1). A lower level may be required in specific and duly justified circumstances.

Budget principles applied to the EDF ensure that overall cash resources for the budgetary period are always sufficient for the execution of all related payments. Indeed the total Member States' contributions equal the overall amount of payment appropriations for the relevant budgetary period.

Member States contributions to EDF, however, are paid in three instalments per year, while payments are subject to certain seasonality.

In order to ensure that treasury resources are always sufficient to cover the payments to be executed in any given month, information on the treasury situation is regularly exchanged between the Commission' treasury and the relevant spending departments in order to ensure that payments executed in any given period do not exceed the available treasury resources.

In addition to the above, in the context of the EDF's daily treasury operations, automated cash management tools ensure that sufficient liquidity is available on each of the EDF's bank accounts, on a daily basis.

6.   RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

The related parties of the EDF are Bêkou and Africa EU Trust Funds. Transactions between these entities take place as part of the normal operations of the EDF and as this is the case, no specific disclosure requirements are necessary for these transactions in accordance with the EU accounting rules.

The EDF has no separate management since it is managed by the Commission. The entitlements of the key management of the EU, including the Commission, have been disclosed in the Consolidated annual accounts of the European Union under heading 8.2 ‘Key management entitlements’.

7.   EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE

At the date of transmission of these accounts, no material issues had come to the attention of the Accounting Officer of the EDF or were reported to him that would require separate disclosure under this section. The annual accounts and related notes were prepared using the most recently available information and this is reflected in the information presented above.

8.   RECONCILIATION OF ECONOMIC RESULT AND BUDGET RESULT

RECONCILIATION OF ECONOMIC RESULT AND BUDGET RESULT

The economic result of the year is calculated on the basis of accrual accounting principles. The budget result is however based on cash accounting rules. As the economic result and the budget result both cover the same underlying operational transactions, it is a useful control to ensure that they are reconcilable. The table below shows this reconciliation, highlighting the key reconciling amounts, split between revenue and expenditure items.

8.1.   RECONCILING ITEMS — REVENUE

RECONCILING ITEMS — REVENUE

The budgetary revenue of a financial year corresponds to the revenue collected from entitlements established in the course of the year and amounts collected from entitlements established in previous years.

The entitlements not affecting the budget result are recorded in the economic result but from a budgetary perspective cannot be considered as revenues as the cashed amount is transferred to reserves and cannot be recommitted without a Council decision.

The entitlements established in the current year but not yet collected are to be deducted from the economic result for reconciliation purposes as they do not form part of budgetary revenue. On the contrary, the entitlements established in previous years and collected in the current year must be added to the economic result for reconciliation purposes.

The net effect of pre-financing is the clearing of the recovered pre-financing amounts. This is a cash receipt which has no impact on the economic result.

The net accrued revenue mainly consists of accruals made for year-end cut-off purposes. Only the net effect, i.e. the accrued revenue of the current year less the reversal of accrued revenue of the previous year, is taken into consideration.

8.2.   RECONCILING ITEMS — EXPENDITURE

RECONCILING ITEMS — EXPENDITURE

Expenses of the current year not yet paid are to be added for reconciliation purposes as they are included in the economic result but do not form part of budgetary expenditure. On the contrary, the expenses of previous years paid in the current year must be deducted from the economic result for reconciliation purposes as they are part of the current year's budgetary expenditure but have either no effect on the economic result or they decrease the expenses in case of corrections.

expenses of previous years paid in the current year

The cash receipts from payment cancellations do not affect the economic result whereas they impact the budget result.

payment cancellations

The net effect of pre-financing is the combination of the new pre-financing amounts paid in the current year (recognised as budgetary expenditure of the year) and the clearing of pre-financing paid in the current year or previous years through the acceptance of eligible costs. The latter represents an expense in accrual terms but not in the budgetary accounts since the payment of the initial pre-financing had already been considered as a budgetary expenditure at the time of its payment.

net effect of pre-financing

The net accrued expenses mainly consist of accruals made for year-end cut-off purposes, i.e. eligible expenses incurred by beneficiaries of EDF funds but not yet reported to the EDF. Only the net effect, i.e. the accrued expenses of the current year less the reversal of accrued expenses of the previous year, is taken into consideration.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON THE BÊKOU EU TRUST FUND

BACKGROUND INFORMATION ON THE BÊKOU EU TRUST FUND

In accordance with Article 187(1) of the Financial Regulation applicable to the general budget of the Union (EU FR) and Article 42 of the Financial Regulation applicable to the 11th European Development Fund, the Commission is authorised to create Union Trust Funds for external actions under an agreement concluded with other donors. These trust funds may be created for emergency, post-emergency and thematic actions. The constitutive act of each trust fund defines its objectives.

The first multi-donor EU Trust Fund called Bêkou, which means ‘hope’ in Sango, was established on 15 July 2014, by the EU (represented by DGs DEVCO and ECHO, and the EEAS) and three of its Member States (Germany, France and the Netherlands), with the aim of promoting the stabilisation and reconstruction of the Central African Republic. It has been established for a maximum duration of 60 months in order to provide a medium-term response. At the end of 2015 7 donors contributed to the Bêkou Trust Fund: the European Development Fund, the European Commission via the EU Budget, 4 Member States and 1 non-Member State.

Union trust funds for external actions are required to prepare and adopt their own annual accounts. As the Bêkou EU Trust Fund was established under the EDF, its annual accounts will be consolidated in those of the EDF. The preparation of the annual accounts is entrusted to the Bêkou EU Trust Fund Accounting Officer, who is the Accounting Officer of the Commission, in accordance with Article 187(6) EU FR.

3.   OTHER SIGNIFICANT DISCLOSURES

OTHER SIGNIFICANT DISCLOSURES

3.1.   Outstanding commitments not yet expensed

Outstanding commitments not yet expensed

At 31 December 2015 the outstanding commitments not yet expensed amounted to EUR 12 million. The amount comprises the budgetary RAL (‘Reste à Liquider’) less related amounts that have been included as expenses in the 2015 statement of financial performance. The budgetary RAL is an amount representing the open commitments for which payments and/or de-commitments have not yet been made. This is the normal consequence of the existence of multi-annual programmes.

3.2.   Related parties

Related parties

The related party of the Bêkou EU Trust Fund is the European Development Fund. Transactions between these entities take place as part of the normal operations of the Bêkou EU Trust Fund and as this is the case, no specific disclosure requirements are necessary for these transactions in accordance with the EU accounting rules.

3.3.   Events after reporting date

Events after reporting date

At the date of transmission of these accounts, no material issues had come to the attention of the Accounting Officer of the Bêkou EU Trust Fund or were reported to him that would require separate disclosure under this section. The annual accounts and related notes were prepared using the most recently available information and this is reflected in the information presented above.

5.   RECONCILIATION OF ECONOMIC RESULT AND BUDGET RESULT

RECONCILIATION OF ECONOMIC RESULT AND BUDGET RESULT

The economic result of the year is calculated on the basis of accrual accounting principles. The budget result is however based on cash accounting rules. As the economic result and the budget result both cover the same underlying operational transactions, it is a useful control to ensure that they are reconcilable. The table below shows this reconciliation, highlighting the key reconciling amounts, split between revenue and expenditure items.

Notes to the financial statements as at 31 December 2015

Notes to the financial statements as at 31 December 2015

1   General information

General information

The Investment Facility (‘the Facility’ or ‘IF’) has been established within the framework of the Cotonou Agreement (the ‘Agreement’) on co-operation and development assistance negotiated between the African, Caribbean and Pacific Group of States (the ‘ACP States’) and the European Union and its Member States on 23 June 2000, revised on 25 June 2005 and 22 June 2010.

The Facility is not a separate legal entity and the European Investment Bank (‘EIB’ or ‘the Bank’) manages the contributions on behalf of the Member States (‘Donors’) in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and acts as an administrator of the Facility.

Financing under the Agreement is provided from EU Member States’ budgets. EU Member States contribute with the amounts allocated to finance the IF and grants for the financing of the interest subsidies as provided for under the multi-annual financial frameworks (First Financial Protocol covering the period 2000 — 2007 and referred to as the Ninth European Development Fund (EDF), Second Financial Protocol covering the period 2008 — 2013 and referred to as the 10th EDF, the ‘Bridging Facility’ covering the period from 1 January 2014 until 28 February 2015 and the Third Financial Protocol covering the period 2014 — 2020 referred to as the 11th EDF). The EIB is entrusted with the management of:

The present financial statements cover the period from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2015.

On a proposal from the Management Committee of EIB, the Board of Directors of EIB adopted the Financial Statements on 10 March 2016, and authorised their submission to the Board of Governors for approval by 26 April 2016.

2   Significant accounting policies

Significant accounting policies

2.1   Basis of preparation — Statement of compliance

Basis of preparation — Statement of compliance

The Facility’s financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as adopted by the European Union.

2.2   Significant accounting judgments and estimates

Significant accounting judgments and estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires the use of accounting estimates. It also requires the European Investment Bank’s Management to exercise its judgment in the process of applying the Investment Facility’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed hereafter.

The most significant use of judgments and estimates are as follows:

Measurement of fair values of financial instruments

Measurement of fair values of financial instruments

Fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities that are traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices or broker price quotations. Where the fair values cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques that include the use of mathematical models. The input to these models is taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. The valuations are categorised into different levels in the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as described and disclosed in Notes 2.4.3 and 4.

These valuation techniques may include net present value and discounted cash flow models, comparison to similar instruments for which market observable prices exist, Black-Scholes and polynomial option pricing models and other valuation models. Assumptions and inputs used in valuation techniques include risk-free and benchmark interest rates, credit spreads used in estimating discount rates, bond and equity prices, foreign currency exchange rates, equity and equity index prices and expected price volatilities and correlations.

The objective of valuation techniques is to arrive at a fair value measurement that reflects the price that would be received to sell the asset or paid to transfer the liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

The Facility uses widely recognised valuation models for determining the fair value of common and more simple financial instruments, like interest rate and currency swaps that use only observable market data and require limited management judgement and estimation. Observable prices and model inputs are usually available in the market for listed debt and equity securities, exchange traded derivatives and simple over the counter derivatives like interest rate swaps. Availability of observable market prices and model inputs reduces the need for management judgement and estimation and also reduces the uncertainty associated with determination of fair values. Availability of observable market prices and inputs varies depending on the products and markets and is prone to changes based on specific events and general conditions in the financial markets.

For more complex instruments, the Facility uses own valuation models, which are developed from recognised valuation models. Some or all of the significant inputs into these models may not be observable in the market, and are derived from market prices or rates or are estimated based on assumptions. Example of instruments involving significant unobservable inputs includes certain loans and guarantees for which there is no active market. Valuation models that employ significant unobservable inputs require a higher degree of management judgement and estimation in the determination of fair value. Management judgement and estimation are usually required for selection of the appropriate valuation model to be used, determination of expected future cash flows on the financial instrument being valued, determination of probability or counterparty default and prepayments and selection of appropriate discount rates.

The Facility has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This framework includes the EIB’s Investment Bank’s Risk Management and Market Data Management functions. These functions are independent of front office management and are responsible for verifying significant fair value measurements. Specific controls include:

| — | Verification of observable pricing; |
| --- | --- |

| — | A review and approval process for new valuation models and changes to existing models; |

When prices for similar instruments are used to measure fair value, how these prices have been adjusted to reflect the characteristics of the instrument subject to measurement.

Impairment losses on loans and receivables

Impairment losses on loans and receivables

The Facility reviews its loans and receivables at each reporting date to assess whether an allowance for impairment should be recorded in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. In particular, judgment by the European Investment Bank’s Management is required in the estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows when determining the level of allowance required. Such estimates are based on assumptions about a number of factors and actual results may differ, resulting in future changes to the allowance. In addition to specific allowances against individually significant loans and receivables, the Facility may also book a collective impairment allowance against exposures which have not been individually identified as impaired and have a greater risk of default than when originally granted.

In principle, a loan is considered as impaired when payment of interest and principal are past due by 90 days or more and, at the same time, the European Investment Bank’s Management considers that there is an objective indication of impairment.

Valuation of unquoted available-for-sale equity investments

Valuation of unquoted available-for-sale equity investments

Valuation of unquoted available-for-sale equity investments is normally based on one of the following:

| — | recent arm’s length market transactions; |
| --- | --- |

—

recent arm’s length market transactions;

| — | current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same; |
| --- | --- |

—

current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same;

| — | the expected cash flows discounted at current rates applicable for items with similar terms and risk characteristics; |
| --- | --- |

—

the expected cash flows discounted at current rates applicable for items with similar terms and risk characteristics;

| — | adjusted net assets method; or |
| --- | --- |

—

adjusted net assets method; or

| — | other valuation models. |
| --- | --- |

—

other valuation models.

The determination of the cash flows and discount factors for unquoted available-for-sale equity investments requires significant estimation. The Facility calibrates the valuation techniques periodically and tests them for validity using either price from observable current market transactions in the same instrument or from other available observable market data.

Impairment of available-for-sale financial assets

Impairment of available-for-sale financial assets

The Facility treats available-for-sale equity investments as impaired when there has been a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value below its cost or where other objective evidence of impairment exists. The determination of what is ‘significant’ or ‘prolonged’ requires judgment. The Facility treats ‘significant’ generally as 30 % or more and ‘prolonged’ greater than 12 months. In addition, the Facility evaluates other factors, including normal volatility in share price for quoted equities and the future cash flows and the discount factors for unquoted equities.

Consolidation of entities in which the Facility holds interest

Consolidation of entities in which the Facility holds interest

The Facility made significant judgements that none of the entities in which it holds interest, are controlled by the Facility. This is due to the fact that in all such entities, either the General Partner or the Fund Manager or the Management Board have the sole responsibility for the management and control of the activities and affairs of the partnership and have the power and authority to do all things necessary to carry out the purpose and objectives of the partnership complying with the investment and policy guidelines.

2.3   Changes in accounting policies

Changes in accounting policies

Except for the changes below, the Facility has consistently applied the accounting policies set out in Note 2.4 to all periods presented in these financial statements. The Facility has adopted the following new standards and amendments to standards.

Standards adopted

The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations were adopted in the preparation of these financial statements:

| — | Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010–2012 Cycle — various standards; |
| --- | --- |

—

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2010–2012 Cycle — various standards;

| — | Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011–2013 Cycle — various standards. |
| --- | --- |

—

Annual Improvements to IFRSs 2011–2013 Cycle — various standards.

These changes had no material impact on the Facility’s financial statements.

Standards issued but not yet effective

Standards issued but not yet effective

The following standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are effective for annual periods beginning after 1 January 2015, and have not been applied in preparing these financial statements. Those of which may be relevant for the Facility are set out below.

IFRS 9 Financial instruments

Financial instruments

The last part of the standard was issued on 24 July 2014 and replaces the existing guidance in IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. IFRS 9 includes revised guidance on the classification and measurement of financial instruments, including a new expected credit loss model for calculating impairment on financial assets, and the new general hedge accounting requirements. It also carries forward the guidance on recognition and derecognition of financial instruments from IAS 39. IFRS 9 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 9 has not yet been adopted by the EU. The Facility does not plan to adopt this standard early and the impact analysis is currently in progress.

IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

IFRS 15 establishes a comprehensive framework for determining whether, how much and when revenue is recognised. It replaces existing revenue recognition guidance, including IAS 18 Revenue, IAS 11 Construction Contracts and IFRIC 13 Customer Loyalty Programmes. IFRS 15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, with early adoption permitted. IFRS 15 has not yet been adopted by the EU. The Facility has not yet determined the extent of the impact of this standard.

2.4   Summary of significant accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies

The statement of financial position represents assets and liabilities in decreasing order of liquidity and does not distinguish between current and non-current items.

2.4.1   
  Foreign currency translation

Foreign currency translation

The Facility uses the Euro (EUR) for presenting its financial statements, which is also the functional currency. Except as otherwise indicated, financial information presented in EUR has been rounded to the nearest thousand.

Foreign currency transactions are translated, at the exchange rate prevailing on the date of the transaction.

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than Euro are translated into Euro at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. The gain or loss arising from such translation is recorded in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Non-monetary items measured at fair value in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rates at the date when the fair value was determined.

Exchange differences arising on the settlement of transactions at rates different from those at the date of the transaction, and unrealised foreign exchange differences on unsettled foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities, are recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

The elements of the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income are translated into Euro on the basis of the exchange rates prevailing at the date of the transaction.

2.4.2   
  Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents

The Facility defines cash and cash equivalents as current accounts, short-term deposits or commercial papers with original maturities of three months or less.

2.4.3   
  Financial assets other than derivatives

Financial assets other than derivatives

Financial assets are accounted for using the settlement date basis.

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date in the principal, or in its absence, the most advantageous market to which the Facility has access at that date.

When applicable, the EIB on behalf of the Facility measures the fair value of an instrument using the quoted price in an active market for that instrument. A market is regarded as active if transactions for the asset or liability take place with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an on-going basis.

Where the fair values of financial assets and financial liabilities recorded on the balance sheet cannot be derived from active markets, they are determined using a variety of valuation techniques that include the use of mathematical models. The input to these models is taken from observable markets where possible, but where this is not feasible, a degree of judgement is required in establishing fair values. The chosen valuation technique incorporates all the factors that market participants would take into account in pricing a transaction.

The EIB measures fair values using the following fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the measurements:

| — | Level 1: inputs that are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical instruments to which the Facility has access. |
| --- | --- |

—

Level 1: inputs that are unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical instruments to which the Facility has access.

| — | Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active or other valuation techniques where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data. |
| --- | --- |

—

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices). This category includes instruments valued using quoted market prices in active markets for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are considered less than active or other valuation techniques where all significant inputs are directly or indirectly observable from market data.

| — | Level 3: inputs that are not observable. This category includes all instruments where the valuation technique includes inputs not based on observable data and the unobservable inputs have a significant effect on the instrument’s valuation. This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments where significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments. |

This category includes instruments that are valued based on quoted prices for similar instruments where significant unobservable adjustments or assumptions are required to reflect differences between the instruments.

The Facility recognises transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

Held-to-maturity financial assets

Held-to-maturity financial assets

Held-to-maturity financial assets comprise quoted bonds with the intention of holding them to maturity, and commercial papers with original maturities of more than three months.

Those bonds and commercial papers are initially recorded at their fair value plus any directly attributable transaction cost. The difference between entry price and redemption value is amortised in accordance with the effective interest method over the remaining life of the instrument.

The Facility assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event (or event) has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Impairment loss is recognised in profit and loss and the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the carrying value and the present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the instrument’s original effective interest rate.

Loans

Loans

Loans originated by the Facility are recognised in the assets of the Facility when cash is advanced to borrowers. They are initially recorded at cost (net disbursed amounts), which is the fair value of the cash given to originate the loan, including any transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at amortised cost, using the effective yield method, less any provision for impairment or uncollectability.

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets

Available-for-sale financial assets are those which are designated as such or do not qualify to be classified as designated at fair value through profit or loss, held-to-maturity or loans and receivables. They include direct equity investments and investments in venture capital funds.

After initial measurement, available-for-sale financial assets are subsequently carried at fair value. Note the following details for the fair value measurement of equity investments, which cannot be derived from active markets:

a.   Venture capital funds

The fair value of each venture capital fund is based on the latest available Net Asset Value (NAV), reported by the fund, if calculated based on international valuation guidelines recognised to be in line with IFRS (for example: the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation guidelines, IPEV Guidelines, as published by the European Venture Capital Association). The Facility may however decide to adjust the NAV reported by the fund if there are issues that may affect the valuation.

b.   Direct equity investments

The fair value of the investment is based on the latest set of financial statements available, re-using, if applicable, the same model as the one used at the acquisition of the participation.

Unrealised gains or losses on venture capital funds and direct equity investments are reported in contributors’ resources until such investments are sold, collected or disposed of, or until such investments are determined to be impaired. If an available-for-sale investment is determined to be impaired, the cumulative unrealised gain or loss previously recognised in equity is transferred to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

For unquoted investment, the fair value is determined by applying recognised valuation techniques (for example adjusted net assets, discounted cash flows or multiple). These investments are accounted for at cost when the fair value cannot be reliably measured. To be noted that in the first 2 years of the investments, they are recognised at cost.

The participations acquired by the Facility typically represent investments in private equity or venture capital funds. According to industry practice, such investments are generally investments jointly subscribed by a number of investors, none of whom is in a position to individually influence the daily operations and the investment activity of such fund. As a consequence, any membership by an investor in a governing body of such fund does not in principle entitle such investor to influence the day-to-day operations of the fund. In addition, individual investors in a private equity or a venture capital fund do not determine policies of a fund such as distribution policies on dividends or other distributions. Such decisions are typically taken by the management of a fund on the basis of the shareholders agreement governing the rights and obligations of the management and all shareholders of the fund. The shareholders’ agreement also generally prevents individual investors from bilaterally executing material transactions with the fund, interchanging managerial personnel or obtaining privileged access to essential technical information. The Facility’s investments are executed in line with the above stated industry practice, ensuring that the Facility neither controls nor exercises any form of significant influence within the meaning of IFRS 10 and IAS 28 over any of these investments, including those investments in which the Facility holds over 20 % of the voting rights.

Guarantees

Guarantees

At initial recognition, the financial guarantees are recognised at fair value corresponding to the Net Present Value (NPV) of expected premium inflows. This calculation is performed at the starting date of each transaction and is recognised on balance sheet as ‘Financial guarantees’ under ‘other assets’ and ‘other liabilities’.

Subsequent to initial recognition, the Facility’s liabilities under such guarantees are measured at the higher of:

| — | the best estimate of expenditure required to settle any financial obligation arising as a result of the guarantee, which is estimated based on all relevant factors and information existing at the date of the statement of financial position. |
| --- | --- |

—

the best estimate of expenditure required to settle any financial obligation arising as a result of the guarantee, which is estimated based on all relevant factors and information existing at the date of the statement of financial position.

| — | the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation. The amortisation of the amount initially recognised is done using the actuarial method. |
| --- | --- |

—

the amount initially recognised less cumulative amortisation. The amortisation of the amount initially recognised is done using the actuarial method.

Any increase or decrease in the liability relating to financial guarantees is taken to the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income under ‘fee and commission income’.

The Facility’s assets under such guarantee are subsequently amortized using the actuarial method and tested for impairment.

In addition, when a guarantee agreement is signed, it is presented as a contingent liability for the Facility and when the guarantee is engaged, as a commitment for the Facility.

2.4.4   
  Impairment of financial assets

Impairment of financial assets

The Facility assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is any objective evidence that a financial asset is impaired. A financial asset or a group of financial assets is deemed to be impaired if, and only if, there is objective evidence of impairment as a result of one or more events that has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset (an incurred ‘loss event’) and that loss event has an impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset or the group of financial assets that can be reliably estimated. Evidence of impairment may include indications that the borrower or a group of borrowers is experiencing significant financial difficulty, default or delinquency in interest or principal payments, the probability that they will enter into bankruptcy or other financial reorganisation and where observable data indicate that there is a measurable decrease in the estimated future cash flows, such as changes in arrears or economic conditions that correlate with defaults.

For the loans outstanding at the end of the financial year and carried at amortised cost, impairments are made when presenting objective evidence of risks of non-recovery of all or part of their amounts according to the original contractual terms or the equivalent value. If there is objective evidence that an impairment loss has been incurred, the amount of the loss is measured as the difference between the assets carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows. The carrying amount of the asset is reduced through the use of an allowance account and the amount of the loss is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Interest income continues to be accrued on the reduced carrying amount based on the effective interest rate of the asset. Loans together with the associated allowance are written off when there is no realistic prospect of future recovery. If, in a subsequent year, the amount of the estimated impairment loss increases or decreases because of an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is increased or reduced by adjusting the allowance account.

The Facility conducts the credit risk assessments based on each individual operation and does not consider a collective impairment.

For the available-for-sale financial assets, the Facility assesses at each balance sheet date whether there is objective evidence that an investment is impaired. Objective evidence would include a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of the investment below its costs. Where there is evidence of impairment, the cumulative loss (measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value, less any impairment loss on that investment previously recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income) is removed from contributors’ resources and recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income. Impairment losses on available-for-sale financial assets are not reversed through the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income; increases in their fair value after impairment are recognised directly in contributors’ resources.

The European Investment Bank’s Risk Management reviews financial assets for impairment at least once a year. Resulting adjustments include the unwinding of the discount in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income over the life of the asset, and any adjustments required in respect of a reassessment of the initial impairment.

2.4.5   
  Derivative financial instruments

Derivative financial instruments

Derivatives include cross currency swaps, cross currency interest rate swaps, short term currency swaps (‘FX swaps’) and interest rate swaps.

In the normal course of its activity, the Facility may enter into swap contracts with a view to hedge specific lending operations or into currency forward contract with a view to hedge its currency positions, denominated in actively traded currencies other than the Euro, in order to offset any gain or loss caused by foreign exchange rate fluctuations.

The Facility does not use any of the hedge possibilities under IAS 39. All derivatives are measured at fair value through the profit or loss and are reported as derivative financial instruments. Fair values are derived primarily from discounted cash-flow models, option-pricing models and from third party quotes.

Derivatives are recorded at fair value and carried as assets when their fair value is positive and as liabilities when their fair value is negative. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments are shown in the statement of profit and loss and other comprehensive income under ‘Fair value change of derivative financial instruments’.

Derivatives are initially recognised using the trade date basis.

2.4.6   
  Contributions

Contributions

Contributions from Member States are recognised as receivables in the statement of financial position on the date of the Council Decision fixing the financial contribution to be paid by the Member States to the Facility.

The Member States contributions meet the following conditions and are consequently classified as equity:

| — | as defined in the contribution agreement, they entitle the Member States to decide on the utilisation of the Facility’s net assets in the events of the Facility’s liquidation; |
| --- | --- |

—

| — | the total expected cash flows attributable to the instrument over its life are based substantially on the profit or loss, the change in the recognised net assets or the change in the fair value of the recognised and unrecognised net assets of the Facility over the life of the instrument. |
| --- | --- |

—

the total expected cash flows attributable to the instrument over its life are based substantially on the profit or loss, the change in the recognised net assets or the change in the fair value of the recognised and unrecognised net assets of the Facility over the life of the instrument.

2.4.7   
  Interest income on loans

Interest income on loans

Interest on loans originated by the Facility is recorded in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income (‘Interest and similar income’) and on the statement of financial position (‘Loans and receivables’) on an accrual basis using the effective interest rate, which is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the loan to the net carrying amount of the loan. Once the recorded value of a loan has been reduced due to impairment, interest income continues to be recognised using the original effective interest rate applied to the new carrying amount.

Commitment fees are deferred and recognised in income using the effective interest method over the period from disbursement to repayment of the related loan, and are presented in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within interest and similar income.

2.4.8   
  Interest subsidies and technical assistance

Interest subsidies and technical assistance

As part of its activity, the Facility manages interest subsidies and technical assistance on behalf of the Member States.

The part of the Member States contributions allocated to the payment of interest subsidies and TA is not accounted for in the Facility’s contributors’ resources but is classified as amounts owed to third parties. The Facility operates the disbursement to the final beneficiaries and then decreases the amounts owed to third parties.

When amounts contributed with regard to interest subsidies and TA are not fully granted, they are reclassified as contribution to the Facility.

2.4.9   
  Interest income on cash and cash equivalents

Interest income on cash and cash equivalents

Interest income on cash and cash equivalents is recognised in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the Facility on an accrual basis.

2.4.10   
  Fees, commissions and dividends

Fees, commissions and dividends

Fees received in respect of services provided over a period of time are recognised as income as the services are provided, while fees that are earned on the execution of a significant act are recognised as income when the significant act has been completed. These fees are presented in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within fee and commission income.

Dividends relating to available-for-sale financial assets are recognised when received and presented in the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income within net realised gains on available-for-sale financial assets.

2.4.11   
  Taxation

Taxation

The Protocol on the Privileges and Immunities of the European Union, appended to the treaty on the European Union and the treaty of the functioning of the European Union, stipulates that the assets, revenues and other property of the Institutions of the Union are exempt from all direct taxes.

3.1   Risk management organisation

Risk management organisation

The European Investment Bank adapts its risk management on an ongoing basis.

The Risk Management of EIB independently identifies, assesses, monitors and reports the risks to which the Facility is exposed. Within a framework whereby the segregation of duties is preserved, the Risk Management is independent of the Front Offices. At EIB level the Director General of Risk Management reports for risk matters to the designated Vice-President for Risk Management. The designated Vice-President is responsible for overseeing risk reporting to the European Investment Bank’s Management Committee and the Board of Directors.

3.2   Credit risk

Credit risk

Credit risk is the potential loss that could result from client or counterparty default and arising on credit exposure in all forms, including settlement.

3.2.1   
  Credit risk policy

Credit risk policy

In carrying out the credit analysis on loan counterparts, EIB assesses the credit risk and expected loss with a view to quantify and price the risk. EIB has developed an Internal Rating Methodology (IRM) to determine the Internal Ratings of its credit-relevant borrower/guarantor counterparts. The methodology is based on a system of scoring sheets tailored for each major credit counterpart type (e.g. Corporates, Banks, Public Sector Entities, etc). Taking into consideration both, Best Banking Practice and the principles set under the Basel International Capital Accord (Basel II), all counterparts that are material to the credit profile of a specific transaction are classified into internal rating categories using the IRM for the specific counterpart type. Each counterpart is assigned an Internal Rating reflecting its probability of default foreign currency rating following an in-depth analysis of the counterpart’s business and financial risk profile and its country risk operating context.

The credit assessment of project finance and other structured limited recourse operations is using credit risk tools relevant for the sector, focused mainly on cash flow availability and debt service capacity. These tools include the analysis of projects’ contractual framework, counterpart’s analysis and cash flow simulations. Similarly to corporates and financial institutions, each project is assigned an internal risk rating.

All Internal Ratings are monitored over loan life, and periodically updated.

All non-sovereign (or non sovereign guaranteed/assimilated) operations are subject to specific transaction-level and counterpart size limits. Counterpart limits are set at consolidated group exposure level, where applicable. Such limits typically reflect e.g. the size of counterparts own funds.

In order to mitigate credit risk the EIB uses, where appropriate and on a case by case basis, various credit enhancements which are:

| — | Counterparty or project related securities (e.g., pledge over the shares; pledge over the assets; assignment of rights; pledge over the accounts); or/and |
| --- | --- |

—

Counterparty or project related securities (e.g., pledge over the shares; pledge over the assets; assignment of rights; pledge over the accounts); or/and

| — | guarantees, generally provided by the sponsor of the financed project (e.g., completion guarantees, first demand guarantees) or bank guarantees. |
| --- | --- |

—

guarantees, generally provided by the sponsor of the financed project (e.g., completion guarantees, first demand guarantees) or bank guarantees.

The Facility does not use any credit derivatives to mitigate credit risk.

3.2.3.1   Credit risk measurement for loans and receivables

Credit risk measurement for loans and receivables

Each and every lending transaction undertaken by the Facility benefits from a comprehensive risk assessment and quantification of expected loss estimates that are reflected in a Loan Grading (‘LG’). LGs are established according to generally accepted criteria, based on the quality of the borrower, the maturity of the loan, the guarantee and, where appropriate, the guarantor.

The loan grading (LG) system comprises the methodologies, processes, databases and IT systems supporting the assessment of credit risk in lending operations and the quantification of expected loss estimates. It summarises a large amount of information with the purpose of offering a relative ranking of loans’ credit risks. LGs reflect the present value of the estimated level of the ‘expected loss’, this being the product of the probability of default of the main obligors, the exposure at risk and the loss severity in the case of default. LGs are used for the following purposes:

| — | as an aid to a finer and more quantitative assessment of lending risks; |

In line with the Basel II Advanced Approach chosen, the Bank has developed an internal rating methodology (IRM) to determine the internal ratings of borrowers and guarantors. This is based on a set of scoring sheets specific to defined counterparty types. |

The loan’s duration: all else being equal, the longer the loan, the higher the risk of incurring difficulties in the servicing of the loan.

A loan’s expected loss is computed by combining the five elements discussed above. Depending on the level of this loss, a loan is assigned to one of the following LG classes listed below:

| A | Prime quality loans: there are three sub-categories. A comprises all EU sovereign risks, i.e. loans granted to or fully, explicitly and unconditionally guaranteed by Member States, where no repayment difficulties are expected and for which an unexpected loss of 0 % is allocated. A+ denotes loans granted to (or guaranteed by) entities other than Member States, with no expectation of deterioration over their duration. A- includes those lending operations where there is some doubt about the maintenance of their current status (for instance because of a long maturity, or for the high volatility of the future price of an otherwise excellent collateral), but where any downside is expected to be quite limited. |

| B | High quality loans: these represent an asset class with which the bank feels comfortable, although a minor deterioration is not ruled out in the future. B+ and B- are used to denote the relative likelihood of the possibility of such deterioration occurring. |
| --- | --- |

B

High quality loans: these represent an asset class with which the bank feels comfortable, although a minor deterioration is not ruled out in the future. B+ and B- are used to denote the relative likelihood of the possibility of such deterioration occurring.

| --- | --- |

C

Good quality loans: an example could be unsecured loans to solid banks and corporates with a 7-year bullet, or equivalent amortising, maturity at disbursement.

| --- | --- |

D

This rating class represents the borderline between ‘acceptable quality’ loans and those that have experienced some difficulties. This watershed in loan grading is more precisely determined by the sub-classifications D+ and D-. Loans rated D- require heightened monitoring.

| E | This LG category includes loans with a risk profile greater than generally accepted. It also includes loans which in the course of their lives have experienced severe problems and their sliding into a situation of loss cannot be excluded. For this reason, the loans are subject to close and high monitoring. The sub-classes E+ and E- differentiate the intensity of this special monitoring process, with those operations graded E- being in a position where there is a strong possibility that debt service cannot be maintained on a timely basis and therefore some form of debt restructuring is required, possibly leading to an impairment loss. |

| F | F (fail) denotes loans representing unacceptable risks. F- graded loans can only arise out of outstanding transactions that have experienced, after signature, unforeseen, exceptional and dramatic adverse circumstances. All operations where there is a loss of principal to the Facility are graded F and a specific provision is applied. |

F

F (fail) denotes loans representing unacceptable risks. F- graded loans can only arise out of outstanding transactions that have experienced, after signature, unforeseen, exceptional and dramatic adverse circumstances. All operations where there is a loss of principal to the Facility are graded F and a specific provision is applied.

Generally, loans internally graded D- or below are placed on the Watch List. However, if a loan was originally approved with a risk profile of D- or weaker, it will only be placed on the Watch List as a result of a material credit event causing a further deterioration of its LG classification.

The table in section 3.2.3.3 shows the credit quality analysis of the Facility’s loan portfolio based on the various LG classes as described above.

Transaction Management and Restructuring is tasked with the responsibility of performing borrower and guarantor monitoring, as well as project-related financial and contractual monitoring. Thus, the creditworthiness of the Facility’s loans, borrowers and guarantors are continually monitored, at least annually but more frequently on an as-needed basis and as a function of credit events taking place. In particular, Transaction Management and Restructuring reviews if contractual rights are met and, in case of a rating deterioration and/or contractual default, remedy action is taken. Mitigation measures are pursued, whenever necessary in accordance with the credit risk guidelines. Also, in case of renewals of bank guarantees received for its loans, it is ensured that these are replaced or action is taken in a timely manner.

3.2.3.5   Arrears on loans and impairments

Arrears on loans and impairments

Amounts in arrears are identified, monitored and reported according to the procedures defined into the bank wide ‘Finance Monitoring Guidelines and Procedures’. These procedures are in line with best banking practices and are adopted for all loans managed by the EIB.

The monitoring process is structured in order to make sure that (i) potential arrears are detected and reported to the services in charge with minimum delay; (ii) critical cases are promptly escalated to the right operational and decision level; (iii) regular reporting to EIB management and to Member States is provided on the overall status of arrears and on the recovery measures already taken or to be taken.

The arrears and impairments on loans can be analysed as follows (in EUR’000):

| | | Loans and receivables | Loans and receivables |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

  Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents

Credit risk on cash and cash equivalents

Available funds are invested in accordance with the Facility’s schedule of contractual disbursement obligations. As of 31 December 2015 and 31 December 2014, investments were in the form of bank deposits, certificates of deposit and commercial papers.

The authorized entities have a rating similar to the short- and long-term ratings required for the EIB’s own treasury placements. The minimum short term rating required for authorised entities is P-1/A-1/F1 (Moody’s, S&P, Fitch). In case of different ratings being granted by more than one credit rating agency, the lowest rating governs. The maximum authorized limit for each authorised bank (excluding the operational cash accounts of the Facility) is currently EUR 50 000 000(fifty million euro).

All investments have been done with authorised entities with a maximum tenor of three months from trading date and up to the credit exposure limit. As at 31 December 2015 and 31 December 2014 all term deposits, commercial papers and cash in hand held by the treasury portfolio of the Facility had a minimum rating of P-1 (Moody’s equivalent) at settlement day.

The following table shows the situation of cash and cash equivalents including accrued interest (in EUR’000):

| Minimum short-term rating | Minimum long-term rating | 31.12.2015 | 31.12.2014 |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

3.2.5.1   Credit risk policy of derivatives

Credit risk policy of derivatives

The credit risk with respect to derivatives is represented by the loss which a given party would incur where the other counterparty to the deal would be unable to honour its contractual obligations. The credit risk associated with derivatives varies according to a number of factors (such as interest and exchange rates) and generally corresponds to only a small portion of their notional value.

In the normal course of its activity, the Facility may enter into swap contracts with a view to hedge specific lending operations or into currency forward contracts, with a view to hedge its currency positions denominated in actively traded currencies other than the Euro. All the swaps are executed by the European Investment Bank with an external counterpart. The swaps are arranged by the same Master Swap Agreements and Credit Support Annexes signed between the European Investment Bank and its external counterparts.

3.2.5.2   Credit risk measurement for derivatives

Credit risk measurement for derivatives

All the swaps executed by the European Investment Bank that are related to the Facility are treated within the same contractual framework and methodologies applied for the derivatives negotiated by the European Investment Bank for its own purposes. In particular, eligibility of swap counterparts is determined by the European Investment Bank based on the same eligibility conditions applied for its general swap purposes.

The European Investment Bank measures the credit risk exposure related to swaps and derivatives transactions using the Net Market Exposure (‘NME’) and Potential Future Exposure (‘PFE’) approach for reporting and limit monitoring. The NME and the PFE fully include the derivatives related to the Investment Facility.

The following table shows the maturities of cross currency swaps and cross currency interest rate swaps, sub-divided according to their notional amount and fair value:

The Facility enters into foreign exchange short term currency swaps (‘FX swaps’) contracts in order to hedge currency risk on loan disbursements in currencies other than EUR. FX swaps have a maturity of maximum three months and are regularly rolled-over. The notional amount of FX swaps stood at EUR 1 400,0 million at 31 December 2015 against EUR 1 059,0 million at 31 December 2014. The fair value of FX swaps amounts to EUR -3,8 million at 31 December 2015 against EUR -10,8 million at 31 December 2014.

The Facility enters into interest rate swap contracts in order to hedge the interest rate risk on loans disbursed. As at 31 December 2015 there are two interest rate swaps outstanding with a notional amount of EUR 44,9 million (2014: EUR 44,7 million) and a fair value of EUR -0,3 million (2014: EUR -0,1 million).

3.3   Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk refers to an entity’s ability to fund increases in assets and meet obligations as they come due, without incurring unacceptable losses. It can be split into funding liquidity risk and market liquidity risk. Funding liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will not be able to meet efficiently both expected and unexpected current and future cash flow needs without affecting its daily operations or its financial condition. Market liquidity risk is the risk that an entity cannot easily offset or eliminate a position at the market price because of inadequate market depth or market disruption.

3.3.1   
  Liquidity risk management

Liquidity risk management

The Facility is primarily funded by annual contributions from Member States as well as by reflows stemming from the Facility’s operations. The Facility manages its funding liquidity risk primarily by planning of its net liquidity needs and the required Member States annual contributions.

In order to calculate Member States’ annual contributions, disbursement patterns of the existing and pipelined portfolio is analysed and followed up throughout the year. Special events, such as early reimbursements, sales of shares or default cases are taken into account to correct annual liquidity requirements.

To further minimize the liquidity risk, the Facility maintains a liquidity reserve sufficient to cover at any point in time forecasted cash disbursements, as communicated periodically by EIB’s Lending Department. Funds are invested on the money market and bond markets in the form of interbank deposits and other short term financial instruments by taking into consideration the Facility’s cash disbursement obligations. The Facility’s liquid assets are managed by the Bank’s Treasury Department with a view to maintain appropriate liquidity to enable the Facility to meet its obligations.

In accordance with the principle of segregation of duties between the Front and Back Office, settlement operations related to the investment of these assets are under the responsibility of the EIB’s Planning and Settlement of Operations Department. Furthermore, the authorisation of counterparts and limits for treasury investments, as well as the monitoring of such limits, are the responsibility of the Bank’s Risk Management Directorate.

3.3.2   
  Liquidity risk measurement

Liquidity risk measurement

The tables in this section analyse the financial liabilities of the Facility by maturity on the basis of the period remaining between the balance sheet date and the contractual maturity date (based on undiscounted cash flows).

In terms of non-derivative financial liabilities, the Facility holds commitments in form of un-disbursed portions of the credit under signed loan agreements, of un-disbursed portions of signed capital subscription/investment agreements, of loan guarantees granted, or of committed interest subsidies and TA.

Loans under the IF have a disbursement deadline. However, disbursements are made at times and in amounts reflecting the progress of underlying investment projects. Moreover, the IF’s loans are transactions performed in a relatively volatile operating environment, hence their disbursement schedule is subject to a significant degree of uncertainty.

Capital investments become due when and as soon as equity fund managers issue valid calls for capital, reflecting the progress in their investment activities. The drawdown period is usually of 3 years, with frequent prolongation by one or two years. Some disbursement commitments usually survive the end of the drawdown period until full disposal of the fund’s underlying investments, as the fund’s liquidity may be insufficient from time to time to meet payment obligations arising in respect of fees or other expenses.

Guarantees are not subject to specific disbursement commitments unless a guarantee is called. The amount of guarantees outstanding is reduced alongside the repayment schedule of guaranteed loans.

Committed interest subsidies’ cash outflows occur in the case of subsidized loans financed by the Bank’s own resources. Therefore, reported outflows represent only commitments related to these loans rather than the total amount of committed un-disbursed interest subsidies. As in the case of loans, their disbursement schedule is uncertain.

Committed TA ‘gross nominal outflow’ in the ‘Maturity profile of non-derivative financial liabilities’ table refers to the total un-disbursed portion of signed TA contracts. The disbursement time pattern is subject to a significant degree of uncertainty. Cash outflows classified in the ‘3 months or less’ bucket represent the amount of outstanding invoices received by the reporting date.

Commitments for non-derivative financial liabilities for which there is no defined contractual maturity date are classified under ‘Maturity Undefined’. Commitments, for which there is a recorded cash disbursement request at the reporting date, are classified under the relevant time bucket.

In terms of derivative financial liabilities, the maturity profile represents the contractual undiscounted gross cash flows of swap contracts including cross currency swaps (CCS), cross currency interest rate swaps (CCIRS), short term currency swaps and interest rate swaps.

3.4   Market risk

Market risk

Market risk represents the risk that changes in market prices and rates, such as interest rates, equity prices and foreign exchange rates will affect an entity’s income or the value of its holdings in financial instruments.

3.4.1   
  Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk

Interest rate risk arises from the volatility in the economic value of, or in the income derived from, interest rate bearing positions due to adverse movements in interest rates.

The Facility is not directly impacted by the fluctuation of its economic value or to pricing mismatches between different assets, liabilities and hedge instruments because (i) it does not have any direct borrowing costs or interest rate bearing liabilities and (ii) it accepts the impact of interest rate fluctuations on the revenues from its investments.

The Facility measures the sensitivity of its loan portfolio and micro hedging swaps to interest rate fluctuations via a Basis Point Value (BPV) calculation.

The BPV measures the gain or loss in the net present value of the relevant portfolio, due to a 1 basis point (0,01 %) increase in interest rates tenors ranging within a specified time bucket ‘money market — up to one year’, ‘very short — 2 to 3 years’, ‘short — 4 to 6 years’, ‘medium — 7 to 11 years’, ‘long — 12 to 20 years’ or ‘extra-long — more than 21 years’.

To determine the net present value (NPV) of the loans’ cash flows denominated in EUR, the Facility uses the EIB’s EUR base funding curve (EUR swap curve adjusted with EIB’s global funding spread). The EIB’s USD funding curve is used for the calculation of the NPV of loan’s cash flows denominated in USD. The NPV of the loans’ cash flows denominated in currencies for which a reliable and sufficiently complete discount curve is not available, is determined by using EIB’s EUR base funding curve as a proxy.

To calculate the net present value of the micro hedging swaps, the facility uses the EUR swap curve for cash flows denominated in EUR and the USD swap curve for cash flows denominated in USD.

As shown in the following table the net present value of the loan portfolio including related micro-hedging swaps as at 31 December 2015 would decrease by EUR 532k (as at 31 December 2014: decrease by EUR 419k) if all relevant interest rates curves are simultaneously shifted upwards in parallel by 1 basis point.

3.4.2   
  Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange risk

Foreign exchange (‘FX’) risk for the IF is the risk of loss in earnings or economic value due to adverse movements of FX rates.

Given a reference accounting currency (EUR for the IF), the Facility is exposed to FX risk whenever there is a mismatch between assets and liabilities denominated in a non-reference accounting currency. FX risk also includes the effect of changes in the value of future cash flows denominated in non-reference accounting currency, e.g. interest and dividend payments, due to fluctuations in exchange rates.

3.4.2.1   Foreign exchange risk and treasury assets

Foreign exchange risk and treasury assets

The IF’s treasury assets are denominated either in EUR or USD.

FX risk is hedged by means of FX cross currency spot or forward transactions, FX swaps or cross-currency swaps. The EIB’s Treasury Department can, where deemed necessary and appropriate, use any other instrument, in line with the Bank’s policy, that provide protection against market risks incurred in connection with the IF’s financial activities.

3.4.2.2   Foreign exchange risk and operations financed or guaranteed by the IF

Foreign exchange risk and operations financed or guaranteed by the IF

Member States’ IF contributions are received in EUR. The operations financed or guaranteed by the IF as well as interest subsidies can be denominated in EUR, USD or any other authorized currency.

A foreign exchange risk exposure (against the EUR reference currency) arises whenever transactions denominated in currencies other than the EUR are left un-hedged. The IF’s foreign exchange risk hedging guidelines are set out below.

3.4.2.2.1.   Hedging of operations denominated in USD

Hedging of operations denominated in USD

The FX risk generated by IF operations denominated in USD shall be covered on an aggregated basis via the use of USD/EUR FX swaps, rolled over and adjusted in terms of amount on a periodic basis. The use of FX swaps serves a dual purpose. On one side the necessary liquidity for new disbursements (loans and equity) is generated and on the other side an FX macro hedging is maintained.

At the beginning of each period, the cash flows to be received or paid in USD during the next period shall be estimated on the basis of planned or expected reflows/disbursements. Subsequently, the maturing FX swaps shall be rolled over, their amount being adjusted to cover at least the USD liquidity needs projected over the next period.

| — | On a monthly basis, the USD FX position shall be hedged, if exceeding the relevant limits, by means of a spot or forward operation. |
| --- | --- |

—

On a monthly basis, the USD FX position shall be hedged, if exceeding the relevant limits, by means of a spot or forward operation.

| — | Within a roll-over period, unexpected USD liquidity deficits shall be covered by means of ad hoc FX swap operations while liquidity surpluses shall either be invested in treasury assets or converted into EUR if occurred from an increase of the FX position. |
| --- | --- |

—

Within a roll-over period, unexpected USD liquidity deficits shall be covered by means of ad hoc FX swap operations while liquidity surpluses shall either be invested in treasury assets or converted into EUR if occurred from an increase of the FX position.

3.4.2.2.2.   Hedging of operations denominated in currencies other than EUR or USD

Hedging of operations denominated in currencies other than EUR or USD

| — | IF operations denominated in currencies other than EUR and USD shall be hedged through cross-currency swap contracts with the same financial profile as the underlying Loan, provided that a swap market is operational. |
| --- | --- |

—

IF operations denominated in currencies other than EUR and USD shall be hedged through cross-currency swap contracts with the same financial profile as the underlying Loan, provided that a swap market is operational.

| — | IF has operations denominated in currencies for which hedging possibilities are either not efficiently available or available at a high cost. These operations are denominated in local currencies (LCs) but settled in EUR or USD. IF’s financial risk framework, which was approved by the IF Committee on 22 January 2015, offers the possibility to hedge the FX exposure in LCs that exhibit a significant positive correlation with the USD synthetically via USD-denominated derivatives. The LCs hedged synthetically with USD denominated derivatives are reported in the table in section 3.4.2.2.3 below under item ‘Local currencies (under synthetic hedge)’, while the LCs not hedged synthetically with the USD are reported in the same table under item ‘Local currencies (not under synthetic hedge)’. |

IF has operations denominated in currencies for which hedging possibilities are either not efficiently available or available at a high cost. These operations are denominated in local currencies (LCs) but settled in EUR or USD. IF’s financial risk framework, which was approved by the IF Committee on 22 January 2015, offers the possibility to hedge the FX exposure in LCs that exhibit a significant positive correlation with the USD synthetically via USD-denominated derivatives. The LCs hedged synthetically with USD denominated derivatives are reported in the table in section 3.4.2.2.3 below under item ‘Local currencies (under synthetic hedge)’, while the LCs not hedged synthetically with the USD are reported in the same table under item ‘Local currencies (not under synthetic hedge)’.

3.4.2.2.3   Foreign exchange position (in EUR’000)

Foreign exchange position (in EUR’000)

The tables of this note show the Facility’s foreign exchange position.

The foreign exchange position is presented in the tables below in accordance with the IF’s Risk Policies (as described in the IF’s financial risk framework). The FX position as per Risk Policies is based on accounting figures and defined as the balance between selected assets and liabilities. The assets and liabilities defined in the FX position as per Risk Policies are selected so as to ensure that the earnings will only be converted into the reporting currency (EUR) when received.

The unrealised gains/losses and impairment on available-for-sale financial assets are included in the FX position as per Risk Policies, as well as impairments on loans and receivables. Derivatives included in the FX position as per Risk Policies are considered at their nominal value instead of their fair value, in order to be aligned with the retained value of the assets, considered also at their nominal value adjusted by the impairment for loans.

In the tables below the remaining part of the assets and liabilities, which includes mainly interest accruals on loans, derivatives and subsidies, is presented as ‘FX position excluded from Risk Policies’.

3.4.2.3   Foreign exchange sensitivity analysis

Foreign exchange sensitivity analysis

As at 31 December 2015 a 10 percent depreciation of EUR versus all non EUR currencies would result in an increase of the contributors’ resources amounting to EUR 8,7 million (31 December 2014: EUR 32,0 million). A 10 percent appreciation of the EUR versus all non EUR currencies would result in a decrease of the contributors’ resources amounting to EUR 7,1 million (31 December 2014: EUR 26,2 million).

  Equity price risk

Equity price risk

Equity price risk refers to the risk that the fair values of equity investments decrease as the result of changes in the levels of equity prices and/or the value of equity investments.

The IF is exposed to equity price risk via its investments in direct equity and venture capital funds.

The value of non-listed equity positions is not readily available for the purpose of monitoring and control on a continuous basis. For such positions, the best indications available include prices derived from any relevant valuation techniques.

The effects on the Facility’s contributors’ resources (as a result of a change in the fair value of the available-for-sale equity portfolio) due to a +/-10 % change in the value of individual direct equity and venture capital investments, with all other variables held constant, is EUR 41,9 million respectively EUR -41,9 million as at 31 December 2015 (EUR 40,3 million respectively EUR -40,3 million as at 31 December 2014).

  Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs

Valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs

The table below sets out information about the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in measuring financial instruments, categorised as level 2 and 3 in the fair value hierarchy:

| Valuation technique | Significant unobservable inputs | Relationship of unobservable inputs to fair value measurement |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Financial instruments carried at fair value | | |
| Derivative financial instruments | Discounted cash flow: Future cash flows are estimated based on forward exchange/interest rates (from observable forward exchange rates and yield curves at the end of the reporting period) and contract forward/interest rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties. | Not applicable. | Not applicable. |
| Venture Capital Fund (VCF) | Adjusted net assets method: The fair value is determined by applying either the Facility’s percentage ownership in the underlying vehicle to the net asset value reflected in the most recent report adjusted for cash flows or, where available, the precise share value at the same date, submitted by the respective Fund Manager. In order to bridge the interval between the last available Net Assets Value (NAV) and the year-end reporting, a subsequent event review procedure is performed and if necessary the reported NAV is adjusted. | Adjustment for time elapsed between the last reporting date of the VCF and the measurement date, taking into account: operating expenses and management fees, subsequent changes in the fair value of the VCF’s underlying assets, additional liabilities incurred, market changes or other economic condition changes. | The longer the period between the fair value measurement date and the last reporting date of the VCF, the higher the adjustment for time elapsed. |
| Direct Equity Investment | Adjusted net assets. | Adjustment for time elapsed between the last reporting date of the investee and the measurement date, taking into account: operating expenses, subsequent changes in the fair value of the investee’s underlying assets, additional liabilities incurred, market changes or other economic condition changes, capital increase, sale/change of control. | The longer the period between the fair value measurement date and the last reporting date of the investee, the higher the adjustment for time elapsed. |
| | | Discount for lack of marketability (liquidity) determined by reference to previous transaction prices for similar equities in the country/region, ranging from 5 to 30 %. | The higher the marketability discount, the lower the fair value. |
| Financial instruments not carried at fair value | | |
| Loans and receivables | Discounted cash flows: The valuation model uses contractual cash flows that are conditional upon the non-occurrence of default by the debtor and do not take into account any collateral values or early repayments’ scenarios. To obtain the Net Present Value (NPV) of the loans, the model retained discounts the contractual cash flows of each loan using an adjusted market discount curve. The individual loan NPV is then adjusted to take into consideration the relevant associated Expected Loss. The results are then summed to obtain the fair value of Loans and receivables. | Not applicable. | Not applicable. |
| Held-to-maturity financial assets | Discounted cash flows. | Not applicable. | Not applicable. |
| Amounts owed to third parties | Discounted cash flows. | Not applicable. | Not applicable. |
| Other liabilities | Discounted cash flows. | Not applicable. | Not applicable. |

Not applicable.

Venture Capital Fund (VCF)

Adjusted net assets method: The fair value is determined by applying either the Facility’s percentage ownership in the underlying vehicle to the net asset value reflected in the most recent report adjusted for cash flows or, where available, the precise share value at the same date, submitted by the respective Fund Manager. In order to bridge the interval between the last available Net Assets Value (NAV) and the year-end reporting, a subsequent event review procedure is performed and if necessary the reported NAV is adjusted.

Adjustment for time elapsed between the last reporting date of the VCF and the measurement date, taking into account: operating expenses and management fees, subsequent changes in the fair value of the VCF’s underlying assets, additional liabilities incurred, market changes or other economic condition changes.

The longer the period between the fair value measurement date and the last reporting date of the VCF, the higher the adjustment for time elapsed.

Direct Equity Investment

Adjusted net assets.

Adjustment for time elapsed between the last reporting date of the investee and the measurement date, taking into account: operating expenses, subsequent changes in the fair value of the investee’s underlying assets, additional liabilities incurred, market changes or other economic condition changes, capital increase, sale/change of control.

The longer the period between the fair value measurement date and the last reporting date of the investee, the higher the adjustment for time elapsed.

Discount for lack of marketability (liquidity) determined by reference to previous transaction prices for similar equities in the country/region, ranging from 5 to 30 %.

The higher the marketability discount, the lower the fair value.

Loans and receivables

Discounted cash flows: The valuation model uses contractual cash flows that are conditional upon the non-occurrence of default by the debtor and do not take into account any collateral values or early repayments’ scenarios. To obtain the Net Present Value (NPV) of the loans, the model retained discounts the contractual cash flows of each loan using an adjusted market discount curve. The individual loan NPV is then adjusted to take into consideration the relevant associated Expected Loss. The results are then summed to obtain the fair value of Loans and receivables.

Impairment on other assets (in EUR’000)

During 2012 the Facility made a technical assistance payment amounting to EUR 638 which due to fraudulent behaviour of the counterparty did not reach the final beneficiary. Following legal interventions, the Facility could recover EUR 301 and the remaining amount outstanding of EUR 337 was recorded as impairment in the Facility’s comprehensive income.

In 2014 the outstanding amount of EUR 337 was allocated to the interest rate subsidies and technical assistance envelope of the Facility and was recorded as other income in the Facility’s statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income.

Definition of a structured entity

Definition of a structured entity

A structured entity is one that has been designed so that voting or similar rights are not the dominant factor in deciding, who controls the-entity. IFRS 12 observes that a structured entity often has some or all of the following features:

| — | Restricted activities; |
| --- | --- |

Restricted activities;

| — | A narrow and well-defined objective, such as to effect a tax-efficient lease, carry out research and development activities, provide a source of capital or funding to an entity or provide investment opportunities for investors by passing on risks and rewards associated with the assets of the structured entity to investors; |

Unconsolidated structured entities

Unconsolidated structured entities

The term ‘unconsolidated structured entities’ refers to all structured entities that are not controlled by the Facility and includes interests in structured entities that are not consolidated.

Definition of Interests in structured entities:

Definition of Interests in structured entities:

IFRS 12 defines ‘interests’ broadly to include any contractual or non-contractual involvement that exposes the reporting entity to variability in returns from the performance of the entity. Examples of such interests include the holding of equity interests and other forms of involvement such as the provision of funding, liquidity support, credit enhancements, commitments and guarantees to the other entity. IFRS 12 states that a reporting entity does not necessarily have an interest in another entity solely because of a typical customer supplier relationship.

The table below describes the types of structured entities that the Facility does not consolidate but in which it holds an interest.

| Type of structured entity | Nature and purpose | Interest held by the Facility |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Project Finance — lending to Special Purposes Vehicles (‘SPV’) | Project Finance Transactions (PF Operations) are transactions where the Facility relies for the servicing of its debt on a borrower whose sole or main source of revenue is generated by a single or limited number of assets being financed by such debt or other pre-existing assets contractually linked to the project. PF operations are often financed through SPV. | Net disbursed amounts;
  Interest income. |
| Venture capital operations | The Facility finances venture capital and investment funds.

23   Impact financing envelope (in EUR’000)

Impact financing envelope (in EUR’000)

In June 2013 the ACP-EU Joint Ministerial Council approved the new financial protocol for the 11th European Development Fund (EDF), covering the period 2014-2020.

th

A new EUR 500m endowment was agreed for the Investment Facility, the so called ‘impact financing envelope’ or ‘IFE’, enabling the Facility to support projects that promise a particularly high development impact whilst bearing the greater risks inherent in such investments. This envelope will present new possibilities for enhancing the Facility’s private sector lending through investments in the following instruments:

Social impact equity funds — promoted by an emerging population of private equity fund managers who put the alleviation of social or environmental issues at the core of their funds' investment strategy but still target sustainability at the levels of both the fund and its investee companies.

Social impact equity funds

Loans to financial intermediaries — (e.g. microfinance institutions, local banks and credit unions) operating in ACP countries in which the EIB cannot consider financing — in particular in local currency — under the existing credit risk guidelines, e.g. due to either high country risks, currency volatility or lack of pricing benchmarks. The main objective of such loans will be to fund projects with a high developmental impact, especially in the field of support to micro and small enterprises (MSEs) and agriculture, which generally do not qualify for IF financing.

Loans to financial intermediaries

Risk sharing facilitating instruments — which will take the form of first loss guarantees (‘first loss pieces’) that will facilitate risk sharing operations of the EIB with local financial intermediaries (mainly commercial banks) for the benefit of underserved SMEs and small projects that meet the Impact Financing Criteria in situations where a market gap has been identified in relation to the access of SMEs/small projects to finance. The first loss pieces would be structured as a counter-guarantee in favour of senior guarantee tranches funded by the EIB — under the Investment Facility — and by other International Financial Institutions/Development Financial Institutions, thus generating a substantial leverage effect.

Risk sharing facilitating instruments

Direct financing — through debt or equity instruments in projects with sound and experienced promoters and high developmental impacts, but that will, however, also entail higher expectations of losses and difficulties to recover the investment (equity type risk with higher than usual expectation of losses). The EIB will apply strict selection and eligibility criteria for this instrument, as these projects, notwithstanding their high developmental impact, would not be able to meet acceptable financing criteria (i.e. low expectation of recovering the investment or offsetting the losses through interest rates/equity returns).

Direct financing

The IFE will also allow diversification into new sectors, such as health and education, agriculture and food security, and the development of new and innovative risk-sharing instruments.

From a financial and accounting perspective the IFE forms part of the IF portfolio and is accounted for in the overall IF annual financial statements, but with a special tracking of the operations.

The following table represents the carrying amounts and the committed, but undisbursed amounts, per type of asset:
