Changes to European Regional Development Fund
As discussed in the meeting of the European Alliance Against Coronavirus on 7 April, there were changes made to the European Regional Development Fund to finance specific measures and to provide exceptional flexibility in response to the COVID-19 outbreak.
There are two main changes. Funding is possible for:
1. financing of working capital in SMEs
2. investments in products and services necessary for fostering the crisis response capacities in public health services
The European Commission has published a very helpful overview of the new changes and funding possibilities: Background on Coronavirus Response Investment Initiative
To read the offical documents:
1. the proposal for amending Regulation (EU) No 1303/2013 and Regulation (EU) No 1301/2013 in all 27 languages
