Structural funds, EU enlargement, and the redistribution of FDI in Europe

Andere

The EU enlargements of 2004 led to a redirection of Structural and Cohesion Funds expenditures from EU-15 to new EU members as did those of 2007. This redistribution of funds makes the accession countries even more attractive as a location of FDI. Using a logistic regressions approach, it is shown that a reallocation of structural funds as outlined in Agenda for a stronger and wider union (COM(97) 2000 final, 2000) and successive revisions of the financial perspectives for an enlarged union leads to a redistribution of FDI by approximately 4-8 percentage points from the current EU members to the accession countries (2004 scenario) and 7-10 percentage points (2007 scenario), respectively.
