Economic Crisis Team

DG Competition has established an Economic Crisis Team as a first contact point for all State aid related measures for the real economy that fall within DG Competition's area of responsibility and which are being prepared by Member States either under the Commission´s European Economic Recovery Plan, or as a result of any national recovery plans.

Member States are welcome to contact the Economic Crisis Team for any questions related to potential State aid implications of national measures for the real economy (email: comp-economic-crisis-team@ec.europa.ec, telephone: +32 2 299.91.42 or +32 2 296.94.19

Member States should continue to contact the Financial Services Directorate for any questions related to potential State aid implications of national measures for the financial sector (email: COMP-D3-D5@ec.europa.eu)

Early discussions with the Economic Crisis Team may help the Member States to quickly design national measures that meet the desired objectives of helping the real economy and comply with the State aid rules. In particular the Economic Crisis Team may be able to provide guidance as to designing measures that do not constitute State aid, or which fall within a block exemption and therefore do not require prior notification.

All measures will, of course, remain subject to the applicable State aid rules
