10 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 10 Beduidende herverdeling in sleutelsectoren beleid

11 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 11 Ontwikkeling GLB en Cohesie in 2013-2020

12 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 12 Niewe architectuur cohesiebeleid Three categories of regions –Less developed regions (GDP per capita < 75%) –Transition regions (GDP per capita between 75% and 90%) –More developed regions (GDP per capita > 90%) –Cohesion Fund for Member States with GNI per capita <90% Territorial cooperation (3 strands: CBC, transnational, interregional) Cohesie

13 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 13 Common strategic framework for all structural funds Investment partnership contracts with Member States Stronger conditionality The biggest spending area by 2020 Concentration on poorer and weakest regions Thematic concentration Transition regions Cohesion policy

14 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 14 Declining share in the EU budget until 2020 Greening of CAP - direct aid 30 % linked to environment measures Progressive convergence towards EU average: – Close 33% of the gap with 90% of EU average – Financed by all Member States above the average Market measures: Emergency Mechanism European Globalisation Fund to help farmers adapt to globalisation Landbouw

15 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 15 Budget under restraint – Staff reduction up to 5% – Efficiency gains (increase working hours to 40 a week) – Reviewing certain benefits in line with similar trends in Member States Administrative expenditure discipline for all EU institutions * Excluding Pensions and European Schools Administratieve uitgaven

18 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 18 2. Stavaza 1 november 2012: naar Europese Raad op 22-23/11 * Kloof tussen netto-betalers (DU, NL, FI, …) en netto-ontvangers (nieuwe lidstaten, lidstaten in serieuze fin.-econ. Problemen) * BE: in tussenpositie … * Cyprioten zetten cijfers in “onderhandelingsdoos” MFK II. Huidige situatie (b)

19 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission II. Huidige situatie (c) Grote spanningen rond: Algemeen volume begroting: - 100 miljard euro? (Voorstel CY: op dit ogenblik in totaal: - 50 miljard: “tussensituatie naar extra bezuinigingen”; wellicht naar – 50 tot – 75 miljard euro Geld voor cohesie: transitieregio’s, competiviteitsregio’s, macro- economische conditionaliteit? Allocatiecriteria competregio’s … Geld voor GLB: daling pijler 1 (art. 53)? Convergentie tussen oude en nieuwere LS: snelheid? Pijler 2 voor wie? Vergroening … Food for deprived (2 miljard) naar ESF Connecting Europe Facility: - 30 % t.a.v. voorstel COM voor Transport, - 23 % Energie, - 24 % ICT 19

20 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 20 II. Huidige situatie (d) Rubriek 1 a: Competiviteit: - 11 % (SIC); maar toch nog 61,3 % t.a.v. vorige periode Wat met ITER, GMES: in 1 a zonder compensatie? 1b: (Cohesie): - 4 % - vooral meest ontwikkelde - en transitieregio’s

23 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Impact of R&D on economic recovery

24 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Context Economic context: Priority for growth enhancing measures within smart fiscal consolidation R&I essential for competitiveness and creating and retaining high value jobs and industries Policy context: R&I central to Europe 2020 strategy and to realise EU goals in areas such as energy, environment, transport, security International context: EU falling behind other regions in R&D (e.g. US, Japan) and losing ground to emerging countries (e.g. China, India)

25 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Added value of R&I spending at EU level Cross-border pooling of resources achieves critical mass and diffusion of knowledge EU level competition increases levels of R&I excellence and international attractiveness for global talent Cross-border training and career development enhances Europe’s research and innovation capacities EU projects provide knowledge to address pan-European policy challenges and advance Single Market Partnerships with Member States increases efficiency and effectiveness of public spending (e.g. removes duplications) Risk sharing with private sector, leverages additional private R&I investments

26 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Some examples: EU collaborative research on 3G mobile phone standards, led to €250 billion market revenues for EU companies. EU Risk Sharing Finance Facility has leveraged investments in R&D (EIB, private sector) worth 30 times EU contribution. European Research Council grants are attracting leading researchers from US (in some fields more than half of grant holders have doctorates/ post docs in US) Evaluations show every €1 of EU R&D spending leads to an increase in industry added value of €7-14.

27 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Horizon 2020: general objective General objective: building an economy based on knowledge and innovation; supporting Europe 2020 and European Research Area. Proposed budget 2014-20: €77.606 billion (constant 2011 prices) – Also €1.665 billion Euratom 2014-18; €0.729 provisioned for 2019-20 Performance indicators: Europe 2020 R&D target (3% of GDP, currently 2.01%); Europe 2020 innovation indicator

28 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission European Research Council Frontier research by the best individual teams 13 268 Future and Emerging Technologies Collaborative research to open new fields of innovation 3 100 Marie Curie actions Opportunities for training and career development 5 572 Research infrastructures (including e-infrastructure) Ensuring access to world-class facilities 2 478 Horizon 2020: specific objectives (1) Priority 1 – Excellent Science

29 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Leadership in enabling & industrial technologies ( ICT, nanotech, materials, biotech, manufacturing, space) 13 781 Access to risk finance Leveraging private finance and venture capital 3 538 Innovation in SMEs Fostering all forms of innovation in all types of SMEs 619 Horizon 2020: specific objectives (2) Priority 2 – Industrial Leadership

Does not include ITER. Priority 3 – Societal Challenges Horizon 2020: specific objectives (3)

31 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Horizon 2020: specific objectives (4) European Institute of Innovation & Technology (EIT) Combining research, innovation & training in Knowledge and Innovation Communities 1 360 + 1 440* Joint Research Centre (JRC)** Providing a robust, evidence base for EU policies 1 962 * Second tranche pro rata from Enabling & Industrial Technologies and Societal challenges (subject to review) **Additional €656 m for the JRC to be funded from the Euratom Treaty activities Three priorities also supported by:

32 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Major simplification Single framework programme integrating 3 separate instruments (and 8 different specific programmes) Single set of rules covering all R&I funding, aligned with Financial Regulations One project, one funding rate – 100% direct costs*, 20% flat rate for indirect costs Fewer, better targeted, controls & audits Faster time to grant – average time reduced by 100 days Efficient management, including greater use of external management * Lower maximum rate (70%) for closer to market projects. Projects will require co- funding by participants for indirect costs which are typically in the order of 100% of direct costs.

33 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Synergies with Cohesion policy Clear division of labour: – Horizon 2020 = excellence through open, EU wide competitions – Cohesion policy = building regional research and innovation capacity Horizon 2020: – Simplification to ensure equal access for all – Targeted measures for less developed regions to improve policy learning, support international networking, and attract talent Cohesion Policy: – Research and innovation as an investment priority – R&I operational programmes conditional on smart specialisation strategy – Inter-regional cooperation to includes cooperation between clusters, researchers and research institutions, based on FP7 ‘Regions of Knowledge’ and ‘Research potential’

34 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission Synergies with the Competitiveness and SME programme (COSME) Horizon 2020 and COSME are complementary programmes to generate growth and jobs: – Horizon 2020 = innovation driven growth – COSME = support to create favourable business environment and competitiveness Which will be closely coordinated, e.g: – Financial instruments (debt and equity): clear criteria to decide which programme provides EU contribution – SME support: Enterprise Europe Network under COSME, to act as ‘one stop shop’ for EU funding

35 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 35 « ERASMUS FOR ALL » A Single Programme for Education, Training, Youth and Sport (2014-2020)

36 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 36 The context and rationale of the MFF 2014-2020 Concentration of efforts on Europe 2020: objectives and strategic priorities Focus on EU added value: pooling of resources; from a culture of entitlement to a culture of results, incentives, partnerships and evaluation of impact Simplification: streamlined legal basis and programmes, simpler rules and innovative financing sources to enhance the leverage of the EU budget

37 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 37 The context and rationale of Erasmus for All Key role: to enhance the contribution of education and human capital to sustainable growth. Hence the rationale: ► Concentration of efforts on the education aspects of Europe 2020 through the policy frameworks of ET2020 and the Youth strategy, and through policy development; ► Focus on EU added value through mobility, cooperation and policy reform to promote the modernisation of education systems at all levels and address skills shortages and mismatches; ► Simplification via streamlining of legal bases into a single programme, simpler rules and innovative funding sources.

38 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 38 Youth in Action Programme International higher education programmes: Erasmus Mundus, Tempus, Alfa, Edulink, Bilateral Programmes Grundtvig Erasmus Leonardo Comenius Lifelong Learning Programme A single integrated programme Existing programmes A Streamlined architecture Erasmus for All 1. Learning Mobility 3. Policy Support 2. Co-operation projects Specific activities: Jean Monnet Sport

39 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 39 Key action 1: Learning mobility of individuals Key action 3: Support for policy reform Key action 2: Co-operation for innovation and good practices 3 Key actions

40 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 40 Learning Mobility Modernising education through chances to learn abroad: ► Students: higher education and vocational training ► Masters students: a new loan guarantee mechanism ► Youth: international volunteering and youth exchanges ► Staff: teachers, trainers, school leaders and youth workers ► International dimension: mobility for EU and non-EU beneficiaries

41 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 41 Erasmus Master- Loan Guarantee scheme Why? – No support for degree mobility at master level – National grants/loans often not portable – More inclusive access to mobility – Leverage effect of EU budget Who? – Managed by the European Investment Fund (EIF) Eligibility? – Students who wish to study a full Masters degree in another participating country – Average of 47.000 loans a year How? – EU Budget provides part guarantee against non-repayment – technicalities dealt within the debt platform and in cooperation with EIF, ECFIN and BUDG – In return, banks/student loan agencies must agree to offer favourable terms (interest rates, repayment terms, grace periods etc.)

42 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 42 Cooperation for innovation Modernising education through cooperation: ► Partnerships between education institutions, youth organisations, training institutions and other actors ► Large-scale cooperation between education and business: ‘Knowledge Alliances’ and ‘sector Skills Alliances’ ► Connecting students and staff via web platforms ► Helping modernisation of universities in third countries

43 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 43 Support for policy reform Modernising education through policy support: ► Evidence based support for effective education investment ► Development and promotion of EU wide tools to assess and recognise skills ► Peer learning and cross-fertilization between education systems

44 MFF 2014-20 © European Commission 44 International Dimension Objective (MMF Communication): incorporate all existing international programmes (Erasmus Mundus, Tempus, Alfa, and Edulink) to: (1) put an end to the current fragmentation; (2) enhance the global visibility and impact and (3) increase efficiency. 1. International opening of Erasmus: more mobility of students and staff between EU – non EU in both directions 2. Joint Master courses of high quality offered by consortium of EU/non EU universities to attract the very best students worldwide 3. Specific support with neighbourhood countries: More cooperation between universities for capacity building and more student and staff mobility, in line with development objectives 4.Rest of the world: More cooperation between universities in the EU and rest of the world for capacity building, in line with development objectives
