The Commission has raised €5 billion on the capital markets! This is another successful EU-Bond issuance under Europe’s unified funding approach!Such results underline not only the EU’s credibility on global markets, but also the strength of Europe’s collective financing capacity.Why is this important for Europe?🪴 Because EU-Bonds finance transformative investment across the Union: from clean energy to digital infrastructure, through programmes backed by NextGenerationEU.💪 Because they enable timely, stable and predictable support to Ukraine, strengthening Europe’s geopolitical resilience.📈 Because a unified, transparent funding strategy ensures lower costs, higher liquidity, and a stronger capital market presence for the EU.🤝 Because this model demonstrates how acting together allows Europe to achieve what no Member State could deliver alone.With today’s transaction, the EU continues to build a robust and reliable funding framework that benefits its citizens, its economy and its partners.We will publish our next funding plan in December.
