Lântagningen pà kapitalmarkederne belob sig til i ait 28,3 mia, hvoraf 41 % fandt sted i form af euroemissioner, hvilket understreger ElB's engagement til fordel for euroen og samtidig Bankens stilling som en af de forende ikkestatslige emittenter pâ euromarkedet. Desuden styrkede ElB sin tilstedevaerelse pà markederne for GBP og USD gennem udbydelse af likvide toneangivende emissioner.
Of total lending, EUR 27.8 billion went for investment within the European Union, EUR 2.4 billion for integrating the EU candidate countries into the Union, and EUR 1.6 billion for enhancing development in the Mediterranean region, the African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries, the Republic of South Africa, Asia and Latin America.
EU-staterne, der ejer ElB, forhojede dens tegnede kapital til 100 mia EUR fra den 1. januar 1999 og bekraeftede der ved deres opbakning af dens aktivitet. Det hasver Bankens udiànsloft til 250 mia EUR og saetter den i stand til fortsat at udvide sin aktivitet.
As the EIB's shareholders, the EU Member States reconfirmed their support for the Bank's activities by increasing its subscribed capital to EUR 100 billion from 1 January 1999, lifting the lending ceiling to EUR 250 billion and enabling the Bank to continue to develop the scope of its activities.

Den anden kvalitative dimension, jeg skal naevne, er den gradvise ud bygning af Bankens aktivitet i disse lande. Efter knap ti ars tilstede vaerelse i Central- og Osteuropa er Banken nu i stand til at fremme projekter af en helt anden ert end dem, som den hidtil har koncentre ret sig om ifolge Det Europaeiske Râds og disse landes onsker, nemlig infrastrukturer for transport.

It goes without saying that transport infra structure still occupies a large pro portion of our activity in these coun tries, and will continue to do so for a long time.

Fordi en dynamisk okonomi afhaenger af effektive kommunikationsforbindelser, der tager hensyn til miljoet, har EIB endelig fortsat si ne bestraebelser for at fremme de transeuropaeiske net og miljoet, idet disse sektorer er af faelles in teresse.
Aware that a dynamic economy calls for efficient and environmentally sustainable communications, the EIB has stepped up its endeavours on two fronts of particular concern to Europe, namely trans-European net works (TENs) and the environment.
I 1999 stillede Banken over 10 mia EUR til râdighed for trans europaeiske net og infrastrukturer af faelles interesse.
Last year, more than 10 billion euro was dedicated to European net works and infrastructure.
I knap et arti har Banken profileret sig som den forende kilde til bankfinansiering af transeuropaeiske net.
For the best part of ten years, we have made our presence known as the prime source of bank funding for TENs.

Jeg har dog ogsâ bemeerket mig, at visse misforstâelser - f.eks. i forbindelse med vilkârene for Kontoret for Bekaempelse af Svig, OLAF's kontrol af Banken - skyides, at Banken ikke altid har formâet at skabe forstâelse for sin saerlige stil ling som bade europaeisk institu tion, der er fuldt engageret i Unionens tjeneste, og markedsorienteret institution, der mä bevare visse aspekter af sin autonomi.
It is particularly significant that the bulk of this financing, namely 1.5 billion out of a total of 2.4 billion, has been advanced by the EIB under our "Pre-Accession Facility", hence at our own risk and without the guarantee of the Community bud get. This clearly demonstrates the Bank's resolve to play a pivotal role in preparing these countries for inte gration into the Union.

Den samiede lângivning i udvikiingsomrâder belob sig sàledes til 17 mia EUR.
This brought total lending in assisted areas to EUR 17 billion.

Under traditional global loan financing (broadly, lines of credit to intermediary institutions), lending to support SME invest­ment increased to EUR 2.8 billion for 11 500 SMEs, of which 80% in assisted areas.
Ultimo 1999 var der indgâet aftaler om lân pâ 12 mia EUR til de prioriterede transeuropœiske net for transport og energioverforsel, som Det Euro paeiske Râd vedtog pe modet I Essen i december 1994, herunder 1,5 mia til net, der straekker sig ind i ansogerlandene i Central- og Osteuropa. europa.
The EIB is the leading source of bank finance for Trans-European Networks (TENs) in transport, energy and telecommunications as well as other communications infrastructure networks, crucial for integrating the economies of the European Union and the can didate countries.
Samtidig fremmede Banken innovative og jobskabende mindre og mellemstore virksomheder gennem bevilling af venturekapital via sit venturekapitalvindue for mindre og mellemstore virksomheder. Det blev âbnet sidst i 1997 som et led i det Amsterdamhandiingsprogram, som EIB ivEerksatte til stotte for Det Europasiske Râds resolution om vEckst og beskaeftigelse, der blev vedtaget pâ modet i Amsterdam.
At the .same time, the Bank promoted innovative and jobcreating SMEs through venture capital funding under its "SME venture capital window".
I juni 1999 godkendte Bankens styrelsesrâd en forhojelse af hensiettelsen til daekning af risici i forbindelse med Bankens venturekapitalforretninger til 1 mia EUR, der affioldes af Bankens driftsoverskud.
In June 1999, the EIB's Board of Governors agreed to increase to EUR 1 billion the reserve funded from operating surpluses and designed to cover the risk associated with the Bank's venture capital opera­tions.
Banken har hidtil givet tilsagn om over 1 mia EUR til fremme af ca. 40 venturekapitalfonde overalt i EU, heraf 470 mio i 1999.
So far, the Bank has approved over EUR 1 billion in support of some 40 venttire capital funds throughout the Union, of which EUR 470 mil­lion in 1999.

En del heraf gik gennem Den Europaeiske Finansieringsordning for Teknologi. Denne ordning, der administreres af Bankens sosterorganisation Den Europaeiske Investeringsfond, tjener til finansiering af fonde, der isaer stiller egenkapital til râdighed for hoj teknologiske mindre og mellem store virksomheder.
Part of this was channelled through the European Techno­logy Facility (ETF).
I 1999 fordoblede EIB sir indskud i Finansieringsordningen til 250 mio EUR.
In 1999, the EIB doubled its funding for the ETF to EUR 250 million.
I lyset af den voksende rolle, som Banken spiller med hensyn til at fremme Europas venturekapitalindustri, er den desuden blevet associeret medlem af European Venture Capital Association.
In line with its growing role in support of Europe's venture capital industry, the Bank has become an associate member ofthe European Venture Capital Association (EVCA).
Hovedparten af EIB's lân til energi projekter gik til investeringer i en rationel energianvendelse, herunder combined cycle-kraftvaerker og

In support of EU policies to promote investment in human capital, the EIB lent EUR 570 million in direct loans for projects in the "social " sectors of health and education.
Hovedparten heraf gik til uddannelsesinfrastrukturer og hospitaler, hvoraf mange fremmede nationale programmer og nogle gennemf0rtes af partnerskaber med offentlig og privat deltagelse.
The majority concerned educational infrastructure and hospitals, many of these in support of national schemes and pro grammes and some involving Public Private Partnerships.
Desuden finansierede Banken mindre projekter via globallânsordningen, sâledes at den samiede lângivning i ud dannelses- og sundhedssektoren belob sig til 1,2 mia EUR.
The Bank also financed small-scale projects through global loan arrangements, bringing total lending in health and education to EUR 1.2 billion.
Indsatsen til fordel for den menneskelige kapital i uddannelsesog sundhedssektoren blev indledt ifolge Bankens Amsterdamhandlingsprogram.
EIB activity in support ofthe human-capital-related sectors of health and education developed as part of the Bank's "Amsterdam Special Action Programme".
Efter styrelsesrâdet for Bankens mode i juni 1999 blev investeringer i uddannelses- og sundhedssektoren imidlertid integreret i Bankens saedvanlige lângivning.
Following the EIB's Board of Governors meeting of June 1999, invest ment in health and education was integrated into the Bank's regular lending activity.
Banken styrkede sin sagkundskab pâ disse forholdsvis nye omrâder gennem et samarbejde med OECD i uddannelsessektoren og med WHO i sundhedssektoren.
The EIB reinforced its expertise in these relatively new fields through cooperation with the OECD in rhe educational .sector and with the WHO in the health sector.
