  6. Objection under Rule 114(3) · delegated act

    InvestEU Fund strategic investments in the field of defence

    The Commission delegated regulation of 28 August 2025 broadens the definition of eligible strategic investments under the InvestEU Fund to include more defence technologies and products for military use, and extends eligibility to entities in associated countries or controlled by non-associated countries under certain conditions. Parliament rejected the objection, so the Commission measure goes ahead and the expanded defence investment rules will apply. Parliament had asked the Commission to refrain from using delegated acts to change InvestEU's scope and to submit any further changes as a legislative proposal under the ordinary legislative procedure.

    Parliament adopted its annual report on the financial activities of the European Investment Bank (EIB), setting out its position on the bank's operations in 2024. The report covers the EIB's role in closing Europe's investment gap, supporting competitiveness, climate action, security and defence, social infrastructure, and digital transformation. It also addresses EIB governance, accountability, and transparency, and reiterates a call for an interinstitutional agreement between Parliament and the EIB.

    Parliament adopted a resolution on its annual control of the European Investment Bank's financial activities, covering the year 2023. The text acknowledges the Bank's performance and calls for detailed analysis of a 2.4% decrease in consolidated results, while welcoming investments in defence, energy efficiency, and social infrastructure. Parliament asks the EIB Group to enhance transparency, take more risk as a strategic necessity, and support less developed regions and vulnerable communities.

  9. Amendment of the EIB’s Statute

    The European Parliament approved the proposal to amend the Statute of the European Investment Bank (EIB), which aims to remove the statutory lending limit and replace the maximum 250% gearing ratio with a unanimous decision by the Board of Governors. This decision means Parliament supports the change, allowing the EIB's governing bodies full authority over risk and leverage metrics, and it calls on the Council to notify Parliament if it departs from the approved text. Parliament also asks the Council to consult it again if it intends to substantially amend the text, and it will forward its position to the Council, the Commission, the EIB, and national parliaments.
