Den nye aftale er resultatet af langvarige forhandiinger, der blev officielt indledt i September 1998 og afsluttet primo februar 2000.
The new Agreement is the outcome of lengthy negotiations that started officially in September 1998 and ended in early February 2000.
En Strategi for okonomisk udvikling
contains a strengthening of the political dimension.
Den underliggende filosofi omfatter en raekke nye elementer ud fra den erkendelse, at den private sektor spiller en fundamental rolle i enhver udviklingsstrategi, at der er behov for en oget inddragelse af civilsamfundet, og at der skal laegges markedsokonomiske principper til grund.

Den nye AVS-EU-partnerskabsaftale bygger pâ erfaringerne fra de tidligere Lomékonventioner, der gav positive resultater, om end de lejlighedsvis ikke levede helt op til forventningerne.
The new ACP-EU Partnership Agreement is built on the expe rience of previous Lomé Conventions, that produced positive, though on occasions less than expected, results.
Den nye aftale tager hensyn til den aktuelle okonomiske og handeismaessige verdenssituation, den demografiske udvikling, miljobevidstheden og de voksende forskelle mellem vaeksttendenserne i de fleste AVS-lande pâ den ene side og resten af udviklingslandene pâ den anden side.
It takes into ac count today's global economic and trade environment, demographic developments, environmental consciousness, and the increasing gap in growth trends between most ACP countries and the rest of the developing world.
Partnerskabsaftalens hovedmàl er at reducere og med tiden udrydde fattigdommen.
The underlying philosophy includes a number of new elements: the recognition of a basic role for the private sector in any develop ment strategy, the need fot great er involvement of civil society, and the application of market econ omy principles.
Det skal ligge til grund for aile strategier for fremme af en varig vaekst, der saetter mennesket i centrum.
This objective is to underpin all strategies promoting sustainable development "centred on the human person".
Det fremgâr klart af aftalen, at AVS-staterne selv suveraent skal bestemme deres okonomiske modeller og strategier, men aftalen understreger samtidig behovet for en integreret holdning til udarbejdelsen af saerlige strategier, nemlig sâ der tages hensyn til de politiske, okonomiske, sociale, kulturelle og miljomaessige aspekter af udviklingen.
The Agreement clearly sets out that ACP States shall be sovereign in determining the models of, and the strategies for their economies, but it stresses the need for an integrated approach in establish-

Som folge deraf aniaegger aftalen en ny holdning til udviklingssamarbejdet. Hovedvaegten ligger stadig pâ okonomisk udvikling, men den politiske dimension er blevet styrket.
As a result, the Partnership introduces a different approach to de velopment co-operation: while the main focus remains on economic development, the Agreement
I overensstemmelse dermed er folgende vaesentlige principper naevnt: Udvikling af den private sektor, forbedring af adgangen til produktive og finansielle ressourcer, styrkelse af beskaeftigelsen, overholdelse af de personlige rettigheder, daekning af de grundiaeggende behov, fremme af en social udvikling og skabelse af side 20 I EIB INFORMATION

EUROPEAN INVESTMENT BANK The new ACP-EU Partnership Agreement the rights of the individual and meeting basic needs, promoting social development and setting up the conditions for "an equitable distribution of the fruits of growth", are explicitly referred to as key components of such an approach.
Finansieit samarbejde
Financial cooperation
Desuden skal okonomiske og institutionelle reformer fremmes som bidrag til skabelsen af et gunstigt klima for private investeringer og udviklingen af den finansielle sektor.
In addition, support for economic and institutional reforms should help to create an enabling environ ment for private-sector investment and financial-sector development.
I lighed med de tidligere konventioner tillaegger aftalen EIB en fremtraedende rolle i forbindelse med udmontningen af det finansiel samarbejde.
As in previous Conventions, the EIB is given a key role in implementing the financial cooperation aspects of the Agreement.
Finansprotokollen for de forste fem âr (2001-2005) âbner mulighed for en finansiel bistand pâ indtil 15,2 mia EUR, her af lân af Bankens egne midier (') pâ indtil 1,7 mia EUR og 2,2 mia EUR til den nye investeringsordning, som EIB skal administrere.
The Financial Protocol established for the first five years (2001-2005) envisages financial aid for a total of up to EUR 15.2 billion, of which loans from the Bank's own resources (1) amount to up to EUR 1.7 billion and EUR 2.2 billion are for the new Investment Facility to be managed by the EIB.
Det udgor en betydelig stigning i forhold til den fjerde Lomekonvention (').
These figures represent a substantial increase in the funds available under Lomé IV (2).
Investeringsordningen udgor et be­tydeligt brud med de hidtidige finansieringsbidrag i form af ri­sikovillig kapital, ikke blot pà grund af dens storrelse (2,2 mia EUR for de forste fem ar mod 1 mia ifolge den anden finansprotokol til den fjerde Lomekonvention), men ogsà pâ grund af dens sigte og funktion.
(1) Raised on the international capital markets. (2) EUR 3.9 billion vs. EUR 2.25 billion under Lomé IV, First Financial Protocol and EUR 2.658 billion under Lomé IV, Second Financial Protocol.
Den nye aftale styrker klart den politiske dimension, hvilket fremgär af aftalens lange lobetid, nemlig 20 àr.
The new Agreement provides for a clear strengthening of the political dimension, reflected in the long du ration of the Agreement - 20 years.
Den omfatter nu en politisk dialog om fredsbevarende foranstaltninger og forebyggelse af konflikter samt fornyet händheevelse af vaesentlige elementer, sâsom overholdelsen af menneskerettighederne, demokratiske principper, retsstaten og sunde ledelsesprincipper, der nu defineres som integrerende dele af en varig udvikling.
It now includes a policy dialogue on the promotion of peace and the prevention of confiicts, and re-en forcement of essential elements such as respect for human rights, democratic principles, the rule of law and good governance, now de fined as integral parts of sustaina ble development.
Samtlige partnere har forpligtet sig til at overholde og fremme virkeliggorelsen af disse principper samt til at traeffe faelles foranstaltninger mod alvorlige tilfaelde af korruption, ogsâ selv om den ikke direkte berorer EU-midler.
All partners have committed themselves to respect and promote these principles and to take joint action in serious cases of corruption, even where no EU funding is directly involved.
Dette er en integreret holdning, hvorefter den okonomiske, kulturelle og sociale udvikling bidrager til fred og sikkerhed sàvel som til at fremme en stabil og demokratisk

Investeringsordningen skal anvendes til finansiering af dels den private sektors udvikling, dels kom mercielt drevne offentlige virksomheder.
The Investment Facility is designed to finance private-sector develop ment and commercially-run publicsector entities.
Aktiviteten vil blive udfoldet pä markedsrelaterede vil kâr og struktureret med henblik pä dels at undgâ fortraengning af private finansieringskilder, dels at skabe en katalysatorvirkning ved at tilskynde til mobilisering af lang fristede lokale midier og tiltraekke udenlandske private investorer og längivere.
Operations will be on market-related terms, and structured so as to avoid displacing private sources of finance, but at the same time to create a catalytic effect by encouraging mobilisation of longterm local resources and attracting foreign private investors and lenders.
Investeringsordningen vil blive drevet som en revolverende fond, sàledes at alle belob, der modtages i forbindelse med forretningerne, indgàr i ordningen pà ny.
The Facility will be managed as a revolving fund, in which the re turns from operations will flow back to the Facility.

At present, the Member States, the the management arrangements will European Commission and the EIB take into account the need to cater effectively for the requirements of the private sector.
I ojeblikket er medlemsstaterne, Europa-Kommissionen og ElB i gang med at fastlaegge rammerne for administrationen af inve- steringsordningen og dens funktion.
Although many details are still under consideration, words, after some time no reple nishment of the Facility from bud getary funds should be necessary.
Skont talrige detaljer stadig er gen stand for droftelser, vil bestemmelserne om ordningens administration tage hensyn til behovet for en effektiv daekning af den private sektors behov.
The Facility is furthermore expect ed to be financially sustainable in the long run.
Lângivningen af Bankens egne midier inden for disse nye rammer er efter styrelsesrädets godkendelse blevet indarbejdet i aftalen.
Lending from the Bank's own re sources under the new framework was approved by the EIB's Board of Governors and incorporated into the Agreement.
Derved bekraefter EIB sit fortsatte engagement til fordel for EU's politik for udviklingsbistand i AVS-landene.
In doing so, the EIB confirmed its continued commitment to supporting the EU's development aid policies in the ACPs.
Finansieringsbidragene af egne midier skal anvendes til fremme af an laegsinvesteringer, der opfylder Bankens saedvanlige udlânskriterier. •

EIB har for nylig godkendt et nyt bidrag til ga Idslempelsesinitiativet for stierkt gseldstyngede fattige lande (HlPCMiiitiativet) som supplement til det forste, den gav tilsagn om i 1''98.
The EIB recently approved a contribution to provide debt relief un der the enhanced framework ot the Highly Indebted Poor Countries debt initiative (HIPC Initiative), further to an initial amount approved in 1998.
Det bringer dens samiede bidrag op pâ i alt 70 mio EUR.
This brings the Bank's contribution ro the Initiative to ' a total of EUR 70 million.
De stilles til râdighed for HlPC-finansierbare lande i form af gaveydelser, der skal anvendes til tilbagebetaling af visse lân fra EU.
The EIB's funds will provide HlPC-eli- gible countries with grant aid from which to prepay certain loans extended by the EU.
Bankens bidrag er beregnet saledes, at det svarer til den andel, som dens lân af egne midier udgor af den samiede ga;ld, der er omfattet af initiativet.
The Bank's contribution has been calculated so as to be equivalent to the share ot loans from its own resources in the overall debt to be relieved.
HlPC-initiativet blev indledt i September 1996 af Verdensbanken og Den Internationale Valutafond med henblik pâ losning af det problem, at den overdrevne ga:ldsastning udgor en betydelig hindring for en rxkke fattige landes udvikling.
The HIPC Initiative was launched, in September 1996, by the World Bank and the IME to deal with the problem of excessive in debtedness constituting a major obstacle to the development of a number of poor countries.
Ifolge initiativet skulle landene opfylde visse pra."stationskriterier for at fâ adgang til gieldslempelse.
Under the Initiative, to be eligible for debt relief and have it delivered, countries have to meet certain performance criteria.
I September 1 999 nâede styrelsesrâdet for Den Internationale Valutafond og Verdensbanken efter près fra mange af EU-landenes styrelsesrâdsmedlemmer til enighed om en udvidet ramme for HlPC-initiativet med henblik pâ at yde en storre og hurtigere gaeldslempelse. Ifolge det oprindelige initiativ skulle gieldslempelsen forst ydes, efter at visse préEstationskriterier var opfyldt.
In September 1999, the Governors ofthe IMF and the World Bank, with the lead of many from the EU, agreed to an enhanced framework for the HIPC Initiative to pro vide broader and faster debt relief Under the initial HIPC framework, debt relief was to be delivered at the completion point, i.e. once certain performance criteria had been met.
Efter de nye bestemmelser vil donatorerne, herunder Banken, kunne tilbyde fortidige lempelser af ydelserne pä ga-lden mellem tidspunktet for kreditorernes godkendelse af et detaljeret program for okonomiske reformer forelagt af de stserkt ga;ldstyngede lande (herunder opnâelse af sserlige mal, isa:r med hensyn til bekiempelse af fattigdom) pâ den ene side og tidspunktet for virkeliggorelsen af disse mal pâ den anden.
Under the enhanced framework, do nors, including the Bank, will be able to of fer early relief on debt service between the decision point (the moment when creditors approve a very detailed programme of econo mic reforms presented by the highly indebted countries, including attainment of specific targets with respect, in particular, to poverty alleviation) and the completion point (when these targets are actually attained).

EIB's âr 2000-konference om okonomi og finanser i januar drejede sig om regionudviklingspolitik
The 2000 EIB conference on Economics & Finance in January was devoted to regional development policies Lessons from twin stories
Enhver institution ma fra tid til an den overveje, hvorledes de mal, der fremgâr af dens formâlsparagraf, bedst kan virkeliggores.
No institution can afford not to re flect from time to time upon the way in which the goals defined in its mission statement are best achieved.
Kvalitetskontrol i form af teoribaseret (ny)teenkning er faktisk blevet en af formandens topprioriteter.
Quality control in the form of theory-underpinned (re) thinking has indeed become one of the Pre sident's top priorities.
I alle lande findes der regioner, der oprindclig forekom ens, men som ikke desto mindre har udviklet sig i meget lorskellig grad.
In any country there are regions that seemed similar to start with, but nonetheless have grown at very different rates.
Det er natutligs'is overordentlig kompliceret at pâvise hvorfor.
Clearly, it is a complex matter to try to identify' the reasons why.
En fremgangsmàde er at undersoge nogle praktiske eksempler og söge at finde féelles trsk.
One approach is to look at what actually happened in a number ot case studies to see it any common features can be identified.
Der blev pâ konferencen forelagt tre sammenlignende undersogelser af sâdanne praktiske ck.sempler pä regioner i Gra:kenland, Italien og Spanien.
Three papers provided such ca.se studies tor regions in Greece, Italy and Spain.
Hver undersogelse sammenlignede en veludviklet region (set ud tra et nationalt synspunkt) med en tilbagestàende.
Each study included a region that has performed well (in national terms) and another that is lagging behind.
EIB's formal fremgâr af Romtraktaten og er senere blevet bekreeftet pä topmoderne i Maastricht og Amsterdam.
Our twin stories highlighted three broad messages.
For det forste er den industtielle struktur vigtig. Store fabrikker, der kommer til en region, skal anvende teknologi, som tilskynder lokale undcrleverandorer til at udvikle nye okonomiske aktiviteter.
1 he chances for this are increased it local human resources, particularly those employed by SMEs, have a matching set ot skills.
Mulighederne herfor oges, hvis de lokale menneskelige ressourcer - isxr de mindre og mellemstore virk somheders - har de nodvendige fxrdigheder.
Oiling the cogwheels of re gional convergence will continue to be the main mission of the Bank.
For der andet cr de regionale myndigheders kvalitet af afgorende be tydning for, om eventuelle udviklingsprogrammer i tilstnekkelig grad kan tilpasses de lokale forhold. Visse vilkâr - eller i det mindste klare retningslinier - kan véere en god ide med henblik pâ at forebygge en uhensigtsma;ssig anvendelse af midiet.
Secondly, the quality of regional government is critical it development programs are to be sufficiently fine-tuned to local conditions.
F.eks. kan der let stilles krav om teknisk og okonomisk bistand samt uddannelse at lokale administratorer.
For instance, technical and economic assistance, and training of local administrators, can easily be imposed.
Desvaerre lader det generelle billede af Europa formode, at 50 ars bekostelig regionalpolitik ikke har fort til ret meget andet end status quo.
Unfortunately, the broad picture of Europe suggests that fifty years of costly regional policies have led to not much more than the status quo.
F.eks. er indkomstforskellene mellem de europaeiske regioner i de seneste artier forblevet ret konstante, hvad totalerne angàr.
Over the most recent decades, for instance, income inequality among European regions has re mained rather constant from an aggregate point of view.
Nogle okonomer anser nu folgende for den naturlige eller i det mindste den globalkapitalistiske tingenes tilstand: De rige bliver rigere og de fattige ligesà, men uden nogensinde at komme pâ omgangshojde.
Some economists are taking this now as the natural or at least global-capi talist order of things; the rich are
At tro, at produktivitetsforskellene er urokkelige, er imidlertid en feji.
Given the complex dynamics of catching up and falling behind, it was therefore time to take stock of what we know about regional development policies.
Sâdanne lejiigheder giver Bankens ansatte intellektuelt udfordrende stof til eftertanke og
To believe that the productivity gaps are immutable is, however, a mistake.
Udvikling af effektive politikker en given investering virkelig forer til regional vaekst?
And last, but far from least, can project selection criteria be developed to help ensure that regional growth is actually achieved by a particular investment?
Det er blevet tremlia-vet, at dc klassiske grundiéeggende elementcr L'n h ν projcktbcdomnieLse - rentabilitet og opfyldelse af beliggenhedskritcrietnc - er nodvendige, men langt fra tilstra-kkelige torudsa;tninger for med sikkerhed at kunne fremme regionudviklingen.
It has been emphasised that the traditional "fundamentals" for judging pro jects - rate of return and geographical eligibility - are necessary, but tar from sufficient, to guarantee an impact on regional development.
1 stedet bot der foretages en forhold.svis objektiv vurdering inden for en mere generel ramme, der rtckker videre end til en traditionel I0nsomhedsanaly.se.
A relatively objective assessment within the context of a more general framework that goes beyond the traditional cost-benefit analysis should become standard.
Demie vurdering bor gores til almindelig praksis.
The list of issues to be considered should at least include:
Den skal mindst besvare folgende sporgsmâl:
In particular, large-scale public investments should be motivated within such a framework
• Passer projektet ind i en sammenhxngende strategi for udvikling at den pâgïldende regions forholdsmxssige fordele?
As delays are endemic in some lagging regions, project appraisal should assess the complete list of stakeholders, and the associated threats to the project.
Isxr bor store offentlige investeringer begrundes inden for denne ramme.
Public support could be contingent on external project audits tor those projects that become excessively delayed or exceed their budget.
• Styrker projektet eftetspotgslen efter lokale underleverandorer?
• Does the availability of public support actually change location decision, or would the promoter(s) have implemented the project anyway?
Er der behov for politiske ledsageforanstaltninger for at ttemme udviklingen af sâdanne virksomheder?
Ifso, then the likelihood that the grants will affect regional development is rather low.
En gennemgang af den okonomiske teori var forstedagens hovedtema. Professor Angel de la Fuente, (Instituto de Anàlisis Econòmica, Barcelona) forklarede, at der tidligere var enighed om, at regionalpolitik kunne stimulere vaeksten, hvorefter konvergens ville opstà som en neesten automatisk sidegevinst.
A review of economic theory set the framework for the day.
Reduktion af ulighederne og okonomisk vaekst ansâs for at gà hând i hând.
Reducing inequality and economic growth were considered to go hand in hand.
Den seneste udvikling i den okonomiske teori har imidlertid fâet en raekke forfattere til at haevde, at der findes staerke markedskraefter, som skaber ulighed mellem regionerne.
However, recent de velopments in economic theory have led a number of authors to argue that there are strong market forces that lead to divergence between regions.
• Er projektets gennemforelse vel gennemta-'nkt i forhold til dets saitlige karakter?
• And, finally, is the project economically attractive in its own terms?
Da forsinkelser er hverdagskost i nogle tilbagestàende regioner, bor projektbedommelsen omfatte samtlige involverede og de dermed forbundne risici for projektet.
Fore casting is difficult because policies may significantly change the local eco nomic environment.
Offentlig stotte kan gores betinget at, at der foretages en ekstern projektkontrol, hvis projekterne bliver overmâde forsinkede eller overskrider budgetterne.
Still, good forecasting should be able to capture co ordination problems, and projects should be economically sound against this background.
• Er mulighederne for opnâelse af offentlig stotte afgotende for projektets be liggenhed, eller ville initiativtaget have gennemfort det alligevel?
in recent years, with states withdrawing from direct involvement in a number of activities - privati sation of public activities being one example.
I bekrxftende fald er sandsynligheden for, at tilskiid fremmer regionudviklingen, forhold.svis lav.
In terms of the deba te on regional development, the
Forudberegningcr er vanskelige, fordi politiske beslutninget i hoj gtad kan a;ndre det lokale okonomiske miljo, men grundige simuleringer bor kunne afda;kke koordinationsprohlemer, og projekterne bor derfor ogsâ pâ denne baggrund véere okonomisk sunde.
He stressed that the levels of regional imbalances are currently still about twice as high as in the United States, but conjec tured that this value might have been even higher without the question henceforth is
Daniel Moucque, generaldirektôr for regionalpolitik i Europa-Kommissionen, bekraeftede derefter, at de sociale og okonomiske uligheder mellem EU's regioner er ganske varige og ikke viser tendens til at aftage.
The rich are getting considerable efforts undertaken by the European Commission and the EIB.
Han understregede, at de regionale ubalancer stadig er ca. dobbelt sà store som i USA, men mente, at de ville have vaeret endnu storre uden Europa-Kommissionens og ElB's betydelige indsats.

Such occasions give the Bank's staff intellectually chal lenging food for thought and allow the Bank to complement its internal reflections with inputs from major field players. when spending on invest ment is best done by the government itself, and when public funds should be used to support invest ment by the private sec tor.
