The Commission published the up to date financial picture of the 2007-2013 implementation of the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Cohesion Fund (CF) allocations.
Despite the challenges faced by the European Union during the 2007-2013 programming period, the financial implementation of ERDF and CF allocations stands at 97.7% at the end of summer 2018 with the closure process at cruising speed.
An amount of EUR 270.9 billion was made available to Member States at the beginning of the multi-annual financial framework 2007-2013 through ERDF and CF to co-finance projects with high added value in reducing imbalances between the regions of the European Union.

A third objective was put in place to enhace the cross-border cooperation (CB) between the MS.
