First-ever consultation on EIB transport lending
The European Investment Bank is consulting for the first time on its lending policy to transport projects.
Last year, T&E and other NGOs wrote tothe EIB to say that its lending criteria did not take enough account of the environmental implications of transport schemes, and as a result, the bank agreed to conduct a full public consultation on its Transport Lending Policy. The consultation was announced late last month, and details are on the EIB’s website.
