How will the EU finance its €315 billion investment plan?
- 9 years ago
Europe is flush with money but investors are reluctant to step up to the plate. What they lack, they say, is confidence and good projects. In a bid to reverse this negative trend, the European Commission has announced a €315 billion investment plan aimed at boosting growth and jobs in the EU.
Jyrki Katainen is a former prime minister of Finland and currently a Vice-President of the Commission. He is in charge of overseeing and implementing the plan. Christophe Robeet asks him how the EU will finance this ambitious project.
