1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. State aid control
Governments and public authorities frequently pursue legitimate public policies when granting subsidies to
companies. However, in a market economy, such interventions may lead to distortions of competition by creating
unequal conditions for companies that participate in the market and costly subsidy races.
Competition gives companies incentives to innovate, enter new markets and improve efficiency. This brings greater
choice possibilities and lower prices for consumers. It also makes European firms more competitive in world markets.
These benefits require competition policy, to ensure equity and a level playing field. Favouring some firms to the
detriment of others might create inefficiencies by letting less efficient ones survive or even expand at the expense of
the more efficient. State aid control helps rewarding the most competitive firms, thereby increasing overall European
competitiveness. It also constitutes an efficient use of taxpayers’ money while maximising available resources from
limited national budgets targeting many essential purposes, such as the educational system, the health system,
national security, social protection and others.
State aid control does not prevent Member State governments from supporting businesses. State aid control ensures
that any detriment arising from distortions of competition is outweighed by the public purpose pursued by the aid.
Moreover, by steering public aid towards objectives of common interest that otherwise would not be realised (e.g.
R&D&I, major infrastructure projects, investment in renewable energy), state aid control helps both ensure benefits
for society and minimise the negative impact of the distortion of competition.
Over the past half-century, a large body of secondary legislation and guidelines has developed in order to give
practical application to these fundamental principles. The rules have evolved to keep pace with economic and
technological change, with the emergence of new political priorities (such as the increased emphasis placed on the
protection of the environment over the last decade) and with new developments in economic theory. Consequently,
EU State aid policy has undergone a number of important changes in recent years. In particular, the Commission has
implemented since 2013 a major reform package, the State Aid Modernisation, allowing Member States quickly to
implement State aid measures that foster investment, economic growth and job creation, leaving the Commission to
focus its State aid control on cases most liable to distort competition. At the same time, measures that might seriously
harm competition or fragment the Single Market are subject to more careful scrutiny and a number of new initiatives
have been introduced, in particular transparency, ex-post evaluation and increased monitoring.
The 2018 State aid Scoreboard confirms the benefits of modernisation.

1.2. The State aid Scoreboard: purpose, scope and content
Under Article 6(1) of Commission Regulation (EC) 794/2004, the Commission has to publish, annually, a State aid
synopsis ("State Aid Scoreboard") on the basis of the expenditure reports provided by Member States1.
This report presents State aid expenditure data for 2017 as reported by Member States2 and summarises the main
findings by focusing on the most relevant changes observed between 2016 and 2017.
Expenditure refers to all existing aid measures3 in favour of industries and services (including agriculture and
fisheries), for which the Commission adopted a formal decision or received a summary information sheet from the
Member States for measures qualifying for exemption under the General Block Exemption Regulation (GBER). The
figures do not include funding granted in line with the de minimis rules since this spending is not deemed to constitute
State aid. They also exclude most of the aid to railways4 and services of general economic interest5. Furthermore, crisis
aid to the financial sector is dealt with separately in section 4.
In addition, the note includes an analysis of reported expenditure and confirms the benefits of the State Aid
Modernisation: quicker implementation of public support by Member States, to the benefit of citizens, businesses and
regions; less bureaucracy, red tape and delays. The note also highlights the role of State aid control in steering public
aid towards objectives of common interest (e.g. R&D&I and investment in renewable energy), while ensuring benefits
for society and minimising the negative impact of State aid on competition.
Finally, the overall observations are underpinned by further information. The Annexes provide additional material
(illustrative tables and charts) to allow a more informed reading of the 2018 Scoreboard results. In particular Annex 6
contains country fiches, which have been shared with Member States for consultation and verification of the reported
expenditure. The country fiches contain the final figures published.
1 Commission Regulation (EC) No 794/2004, Article 6(2) "Each year the Commission shall publish a State aid
synopsis containing a synthesis of the information contained in the annual reports submitted during the previous year."
2 The main findings and insights presented in this note reflect the information as reported and validated by Member States before publication.
3 Subsidies granted to individuals or general measures open to all enterprises are not covered by this definition and do not constitute State aid.
Additionally, since 2016, the Commission took several steps to further clarify the notion of State aid with the aim of helping public authorities and companies to identify when public support measures can be granted outside the remit of State aid control and approval by the European Commission , in particular with the adoption of the Notice on the notion of State aid (see Commission Notice on the notion of State aid as referred to in Article 107(1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, C/2016/2946, OJ C 262, 19.7.2016, pp. 1-50.).
4 Subsidies to railways are excluded from the total State aid figure in the State Aid Scoreboard, as they fall under Article 93 TFEU and corresponding regulations. They however appear in a dedicated table in the scoreboard, together with data falling under Regulation 1370/2007 which are reported on a voluntary basis by Member States.
5 SGEI cases have been excluded from the analysis since the reporting of measures of this nature is not fully consistent across Member States.

1.3. The 2018 State aid Scoreboard: summary and main findings
The 2018 State Aid Scoreboard shows the positive role of State aid in steering public aid towards common interest
objectives, while minimising the negative impact of State aid on competition, and confirms the benefits of the State
Aid Modernisation (SAM):
• In 2017, Member States spent €116.2 billion, i.e. 0.76% of EU GDP, on State aid, compared to €106.6 billion,
i.e. 0.72% of EU GDP, in 2016. About 53% of total spending was attributed to State aid to environmental and
energy savings, largely due to the approval and implementation of numerous renewable energy initiatives in
many Member States.
• While about 50% of total State aid was still allocated to supporting sectoral development, rescue and
restructuring in the early nineties, it currently only represents a very small proportion of aid disbursed. In
2017, about 94% of total State aid spending was allocated to horizontal objectives of common interest,
such as environmental protection, research, development and innovation and regional development.
• State aid control does not prevent Member State governments from focusing aid on their own legitimate
policy objectives and priorities. In 20 Member States, environmental protection and energy savings
represent one of the two main policy objectives for which they spent the most in 2017, followed by regional
development in 9 Member States, research, development and innovation in 9 Member States and culture in
6 Member States
• Since 2015, more than 96% of new measures for which expenditure has been reported for the first time fell
under the General Block Exemption Regulation - an absolute increase of about 28p.p. compared to 2013.
This development is in line with the Commission's approach to be 'big on big things and small on small things'
– to focus on delivering more and faster, while doing less where it is perceived not to have an added value.
• Total expenditure on measures falling under the General Block Exemption Regulation (GBER) in the EU
represented about 41.7 billion euros in 2017, a remarkable increase of about EUR 7.8 billion EUR compared
to 2016. For the first time, spending under GBER increased for all possible objectives. In particular, GBER
spending strongly increased for broadband and local and multi recreational infrastructures (+129%), for aid to
SMEs and risk finance (+81%), for social support to individual consumers (+ 56%), for research, development
and innovation (+30%), for aid to culture and heritage conservation (+28%) and for employment (+21%).
• The growing share of spending falling under GBER implies that, on average, State aid measures can be
implemented much more quickly than in the past by Member States. The estimated average duration
before possible implementation decreased from about 3.3 months before State Aid Modernisation to about
2.8 months over the period 2016-2017 - a decrease of 15%.
• At the same time, notified State aid measures tend to cover bigger budgets and spending than in the past,
in line with the Commission's approach to be 'big on big things and small on small things'. In 2017, the
average annual budget of notified measures implemented was about 230 million EUR, an increase of about
18% and 126% compared to 2015 and 2013 respectively.
8
• The State Aid Modernisation did not lead to any ‘deep-pocket distortions’ between wealthier and less
wealthy Member States. The correlation between State aid spending per capita and GDP per capita more
than halved between 2010 and 2017.
• The level of State aid to the financial sector, both approved and used, was at its lowest level since the
beginning of the financial crisis, except for capital aid instruments where around EUR 12.1 billion were
employed to address legacy cases requiring recapitalisation aid. The European banking sector relies less and
less on government guarantees, as shown by the reduced use of liquidity aid support. This continuing
decrease of State aid used shows that legacy issues are being addressed, while the European banking sector
is able to find more and more of the necessary liquidity on the market.

2. OVERALL TRENDS
2.1. Total State aid expenditure
According to the national expenditure reports for 20176, State aid spending increased significantly in 2017 both in
absolute amounts and relative to GDP. Member States spent EUR 116.2 billion, i.e. 0.76% of GDP, on State aid at
European Union level (see Graph 1), an increase of about 0.04p.p. of GDP compared to 2016. In nominal terms, this
represents an increase of about 9% compared to 2016 expenditure (+ EUR 9.6 billion).
Seen from a long-term perspective, the overall level of State aid had been on a downward trend since the 1980s.
From approximately 2% of EU GDP during the 1980s, it fell to about 1% of EU GDP in the 1990s and decreased even
further to around 0.5% to 0.6% of EU GDP in the first decade of the 21st century. Since 2014, the downward trend
has however been reversed, mostly due to the inclusion of large renewable energy schemes (RES). Most notably,
over time, the Commission observed a greater focus on horizontal aid for environmental protection, energy
efficiency, R&D&I, SMEs and regional development. Such measures are not only less distortive of competition but
also contribute towards reaching the EU's strategic objectives of smart, sustainable and inclusive growth.

Note: A large part of the increase in reported total expenditure that has been observed from 2014 compared to previous years was due to the inclusion of renewable energy schemes (RES).
Please note that some Member States have not yet reported all measures concerning Renewable Energy Sources (RES)/Combined Heat and Power (CHP). Moreover, in some cases, the reporting has been made only for 2014 and/or following years while the measures may well also cover previous years. In light of the jurisprudence, a more consistent and continuous reporting of State aid to renewables may be expected in the future.
In 2017, spending was reported for 3334 active measures, of which a large majority were schemes (77%). While only
about 11% of these measures (i.e. 373 cases) concerned environmental protection and energy savings, they cover, on
average, much higher budgets and spending compared to other objectives. About 53% of total spending, excluding
agricultural aid, was attributed to State aid to environmental and energy savings. A large share of this spending is
due to the approval under EU State aid rules of renewable energy initiatives, to help Member States meet their energy

security and environmental targets (20% by 20207) and achieve the Energy Union strategy on the transition to a low-
carbon, secure and competitive economy.
Apart from State aid to environmental and energy savings, Member States spent about EUR 54.8 billion, i.e. 0.36% of
GDP, on State aid at European Union level (see Graph 1). After the decrease registered in 2016 as compared to 2015,
this represents an increase of about 10.6% compared to 2016 expenditure (+ EUR 5.2 billion)8, in nominal terms.
As regards both the levels and changes in total expenditure, there are large differences between Member States (see
Graph 2 and Annex 2). The highest increase in expenditure has been recorded in Hungary (+0.5p.p. of GDP). Other
Member States, i.e. Poland (+0.5p.p. of GDP), Bulgaria and Malta (+0.3p.p. of GDP), Lithuania and Estonia (+0.2p.p. of
GDP) also recorded large increases. On the contrary, a substantial reduction in State aid expenditure has been
observed in Latvia (-0.7p.p. of GDP) and, to a lesser extent, in Slovakia (-0.2p.p. of GDP). All the remaining member
States registered much lower variations, i.e. between -0.1p.p. and 0.1p.p. of GDP.

7 In 2009, the EU's Renewable Energy Directive set a binding target of 20% final energy consumption from
renewable sources by 2020 (Directive 2009/28/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 23 April 2009 on the promotion of the use of energy from renewable sources and amending and subsequently repealing Directives 2001/77/EC and 2003/30/EC, OJ L 140, 5.6.2009, p. 16). To achieve this, EU Member States have committed to reach their own national renewables targets ranging from 10% in Malta to 49% in Sweden. On 14 June 2018, the Commission, the European Parliament and the Council agreed on a new Renewable Energy Directive (RED II) which sets a European wide binding target of reaching a share of energy from renewables of at least 32% of the Union’s gross final consumption in 2030.
8 When comparing State Aid expenditure as % of GDP for the two last four years periods, i.e. 2010-2013 and 2014-2017, the trend shows however a clear decrease of about 0.05% of GDP (with respectively a total expenditure of about 0.41% and 0.36% of GDP for the two selected periods).

2.2. State aid expenditure by objective
Despite the general prohibition of State aid laid down in the TFEU, in some circumstances government interventions
are necessary for a well-functioning and equitable economy. Therefore, the Treaty leaves room for a number of policy
objectives for which State aid can be considered as compatible with the functioning of the Internal Market. The EU
State aid legislation codifies these exemptions9.
To be compatible, State aid must contribute to a well-defined objective of common interest. The range of potential
common-interest objectives is very broad, ranging from supporting consumer welfare to social and political objectives,
such as sustainable growth, social and regional cohesion and environmental protection. However, in practice aid
measures are often mutually complementary and some of the objectives might overlap10.
At EU level, the observed overall change in reported State aid expenditure in 2017 compared to 2016 largely differs by
policy objective (see Graph 3 and Annex 3).
Graph 3 – Overall change in State aid expenditure by objective between 2016 and 2017 in the European Union (in millions EUR)
Source: Commission services.
The largest variations, in nominal terms, have been identified for the following objectives:
(1) An increase of State aid to environmental protection and energy savings of about 4.4 billion EUR. Expressed as %
of GDP and compared to 2016, increases in expenditure for this objective have been registered in 19 Member States
(see Graph 4). In absolute amounts, the most noticeable increases occurred in Germany (+1.4 billion EUR), France (+ 1

billion EUR), Italy (+853 million EUR), Poland (+359 million EUR) and Hungary (+211 million EUR), corresponding to
spending increases for existing schemes or to the implementation of new schemes: (i) to support renewables in
Germany (SA.45461 replacing SA.38632), France (SA.40171) and Hungary (SA.44076); (ii) to reduce the renewable and
cogeneration surcharge for electro-intensive users in Italy (SA.38635); (iii) to invest in the (re)construction of an
energy efficient heating/cooling network in Poland (SA.43904); and (iv) to support environmental protection and
energy efficiency in Hungary (SA.39826).

(2) An overall increase of State aid to "other" objectives including broadband, Projects of Common European
Interest or local infrastructures of about 1.5 billion EUR. Expressed as % of GDP, increases in expenditure, compared
to 2016, have been registered in 15 Member States (see Graph 5). In absolute amounts, the strongest increases
occurred in Sweden (+582 million EUR), Poland (+486 million EUR), France (+465 million EUR) and Hungary (+268
million EUR). While these increases concern essentially the support to the development of local infrastructure
(SA.39817 in Hungary) or broadband (SA.43834 in Poland), they also include particular measures that could have been
reclassified under different policy objectives (e.g. support to Samhall, a State-owned Swedish company providing
employment for people with disabilities (SA.38469)11 or aid to undertakings exposed to a significant risk of carbon
leakage in France (SA.43389)).
11 Although Sweden reported this measure under "other", it could have been reported under the employment
objective.

(3) An increase of State aid for regional development of about 1.4 billion EUR at EU level. After the strong decreases
registered for regional development in both 2015 and 2016, the trend has therefore been reversed in 2017. However,
expressed as % of GDP, increases in expenditure, compared to 2016, were actually registered in only 13 Member
States (see Graph 6). In nominal terms, the largest increases were observed in Germany (+672 million EUR), Poland
(+655 million EUR) and Hungary (+118 million EUR). On the contrary, State aid spending for regional development
decreased significantly in France (-177 million EUR). As concerns Germany, the change is almost entirely due to the
implementation of a new scheme to support the improvement of the regional economic structure (SA.49191). In
Poland, instead, the change is mostly due to a strong increase in reported spending under a scheme supporting
regional investment for the competitiveness of SMEs (SA.43142) and another scheme providing financial aid for R&D
regional investments (SA.43257).
14
Graph 6 – Total State Aid expenditure for regional development as % of GDP in 2016 and 2017
Source: Commission services.
(4) An increase of State aid for risk finance and SMEs of about 1.3 billion EUR, notably in Italy (+1.1 billion EUR) and
Germany (+484 million EUR). For Italy, the increase is mostly due to a scheme created to facilitate access to credit for
trading companies (SA.41830), while for Germany, it is primarily due to a new scheme aimed at improving of the
regional and commercial economic structure for SMEs (SA.49191).
(5) An increase of State aid for promotion of export and internationalisation of about 730 million EUR, entirely due
to reporting by Spain of the amounts spent under a former tax scheme benefitting companies acquiring foreign
shareholdings (SA.3555012), subject to a recovery procedure13.
(6) A slight decrease of State aid to research and development including innovation of about 640 million EUR at EU
level, mostly due to decreased spending in the United Kingdom (-711 million EUR) and Italy (- 475 million EUR).
However, expressed as % of GDP, the situation is rather balanced since increases in expenditure, compared to 2016,
were actually registered in half of the Member States (see Graph 7). For the United Kingdom, the decrease is mostly
due to lower disbursements under a scheme providing R&D tax credit to SMEs (SA.41386 replacing SA.32768). As
concerns Italy, lower spending was registered for several large schemes, i.a. to maximise use of FIRST14 support
12 See http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-14-1159_en.htm
13 When Member States report expenditure for cases for which a recovery procedure has been launched, the full amount of the aid disbursed has to be reported, irrespective of the fact that the aid was partially or fully recovered. However, the results of the investigations of the tax ruling practices of Member States and in particular the corresponding decisions requiring that incompatible State aid must be recovered in order to remove the distortion of competition created by the aid (e.g. see http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-17-3701_en.htm) may not appear yet in the reported figures.

precompetitive R&D and general training (SA.33100).

The figures reported for the remaining aid objectives in 2017 are broadly similar to those in 2016 (see Graph 8).

16
The 2018 Scoreboard shows that State aid control does not prevent Member State governments from supporting their
own legitimate policy objectives and priorities. In fact, Member States used State aid for rather diversified objectives
(see Graph 9). In 2017, the prime reported policy objectives (i.e. for which Member States spent the most) were:
• Environmental protection and energy savings for a majority of 16 Member States (Germany, Romania,
Bulgaria, Austria, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Estonia, Czechia, Ireland, the Netherlands, Cyprus, Slovenia,
Luxembourg, the United Kingdom and France). Moreover, the large majority of aid was actually used to
support renewable energy sources (including energy tax reductions for energy-intensive users);
• Regional development in Portugal, Greece, Croatia, Hungary and Poland;
• Research, development and innovation in Belgium;
• Culture in Lithuania;
• Sectorial development in Malta and Latvia;
• SMEs and risk finance in Italy;
• Promotion of export and internationalisation in Spain15.
In some Member States, the spending was very concentrated on one main objective. 12 Member States spent more
than 60% of their total State aid on one policy objective (Germany, Romania, Bulgaria, Austria, Sweden, Finland,
Portugal, Denmark, Estonia, Czechia, Ireland, Latvia).
When considering the two prime objectives, for which each Member State spent the most in 2017, environmental
protection and energy savings appears in 20 Member States, followed by regional development in 9 Member States,
research, development and innovation in 9 Member States and culture in 6 Member States (See Graph 9).
15 Mostly due to reporting by Spain of the amounts spent under a former tax scheme benefitting companies acquiring
foreign shareholdings (SA.35550), subject to a recovery procedure (see http://europa.eu/rapid/press-release_IP-14-1159_en.htm).

2.3. State aid expenditure by measure
Reported figures reveal an inclination of Member States to set up a limited number of large schemes or measures
that absorb most of the State aid spending. On average, about 67% of total spending was concentrated on the five
biggest measures in 2017 (see Graph 10). But there are large differences between Member States: In 10 Member
States (Slovenia, Austria, Germany, Greece, Romania, Malta, Luxembourg, Latvia, Cyprus, Bulgaria), this share was
above 80% while it was below 50% in 4 Member States (France, Italy, Hungary and Poland). The large share of
Member States with highly concentrated spending is partly related to the fact that notified measures tend to cover
bigger budgets and spending than in the past, although it is also highly correlated to the size of the Member State or
its institutional structure.
18
Graph 10 – Share of State Aid expenditure concentrated on the five biggest measures (%)

Member States predominantly granted State aid via schemes rather than through ad hoc individual measures. In
2017, only about 33% of all implemented aids were either individual applications under schemes or ad hoc decisions, a
decrease of about 8p.p. as compared to 2016.
To complement the overview provided in Section 2.2, Table 1 highlights, for each Member State, the objectives for
which expenditure has most increased or decreased in both relative and absolute terms in 2017 compared to 2016.
Table 2 provides an even more disaggregated perspective and lists the 30 State aid measures for which expenditure
has increased or decreased most significantly as % of GDP in 2017 compared to 2016. Annex 1 provides the same
information by main primary objective. It helps identifying the most relevant changes observed between 2016 and
2017 and understanding the reasons for these changes.
For example, the increase observed in 2017 as regards rescue and restructuring aid (R&R) is mostly due to one
measure in support of the Duferco group by the Walloon region of Belgium (SA.33926 – see Annex 1.9). Also, the
strong decrease in State aid spending for culture registered for Latvia in 2017 is almost entirely due to the expiration
of one scheme, which also largely explains the substantial reduction in total State Aid expenditure observed for this
Member State (SA.34462 - see Annex 1.11). These developments also reflect the large differences between Member
States in the way they use State aid for attaining policy objectives.

2.4. State aid expenditure by instrument
State aid represents a loss of revenue to the state and a benefit to the recipient undertaking. This economic transfer
can take numerous forms i.a. grants, tax concessions, equity investments, soft loans, tax deferrals or guarantees. The
choice of the aid instrument should normally be made in view of the market failure that the aid seeks to address and
in order to generate the lowest possible distortive effects on competition and trade.
Looking at expenditure by aid instrument (see Graph 11), grants including interest subsidies remain the most popular
aid instrument (64% of total expenditure), followed by tax exemptions (29% of total expenditure). Since 2014, the
shares of spending by instrument have remained rather stable at EU level. However, practices among Member States
largely differ: for example, direct grants cover less than 50% of country specific aid payments in 10 Member States
(Bulgaria, Portugal, Sweden, Romania, Czechia, Malta, Lithuania, Denmark, France and Finland) (see Graph 12).

By comparison, direct grants accounted for less than 50 percent of all non-agricultural aid spent for specific
objectives like SMEs including risk finance, social support to individual consumers, rescue and restructuring and
22
regional development (see Graph 13). On the contrary, 100% of the aid was disbursed through grants and interest
subsidies for closure aid and heritage conservation.

2.5. State aid expenditure on co-financed projects
There is a clear link between EU State aid rules, in particular the regional aid rules, and EU economic and social
cohesion policy. If richer Member States were allowed to support their domestic industries in an unrestrained
manner, this would undermine the effectiveness of European Structural and Investment Funds support to the weaker
Member States and regions and thereby impair the elimination of disparities in and further integration of the Single
Market. State aid control helps to make aid more effective by using regional aid sparingly and proportionately,
concentrating it on the most disadvantaged regions to induce additional investment or economic activity in those
areas. The correlation between State aid spending per capita and GDP per capita more than halved between 2010
and 2017 (Graph 14), demonstrating that the State Aid Modernisation did not lead to any extra ‘deep-pocket
distortions’.
23
Graph 14 –State aid spending per capita as compared to GDP per capita (in EUR) in 2010 and in 2017
Source: Commission services.
As regards total State aid spending on co-financed projects, since 2014, Member States must report the total amount
of co-financed aid, including both national and EU Structural Funds expenditure16.
Compared to 2014, total spending on co-financed projects slightly increased from about 9.3 billion EUR in 2014 to
about 12.5 billion EUR in 2017, of which respectively 68% came from EU funds and 32% from purely national funds.
Compared to 2016, total spending reported in 2017 increased by about 4.2 billion EUR (+50%). The strongest
increases were recorded in Poland (+2.9 billion EUR), France (+364 million EUR), Hungary (+344 million EUR) and
Croatia (+257 million EUR); increases were also recorded in 15 other Member States (See Graph 15). On the contrary,
spending on co-financed projects decreased substantially in Greece (-281 million EUR) and Latvia (-179 million EUR).
These findings reflect the state of implementation of the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESIF) 2014-
202017.
The range of EU programmes currently subject to State aid rules is limited, since EU programmes managed at EU
central level (i.a. COSME, H2020, CEF) include a State aid consistency requirement. However, more than half of EU
funding is channelled through 5 European structural and investment funds (ESIF) in decentralised management18 and
therefore subject to State aid control, unless spending concerns non-economic activities or infrastructure projects
(mostly outside the scope of the State aid rules19). Since, at EU level, the average annual budget of these funds20
16 The corresponding projects are funded under the sole responsibility of the Member States; financing granted under
the Structural Funds qualifies as State aid, since EU funds are integrated in the national budget and Member States are free to select beneficiaries (Art 107 TFEU)

19 In 2017, the Commission continued providing guidance to the Member States' authorities by way of so-called "analytical grids" on the application of State aid rules to the public financing of infrastructure projects, which were

under both the 2007-2013 and 2014-2020 programming periods amounts to about 65 billion EUR, the share of annual
EU funding subject to State aid control represented only about 11% on average over the period 2014-2017.

revised in the light of the adoption of the Commission Notice on the notion of State aid in 2016 and the adoption of the revised GBER in 2017.
20 The Cohesion Fund (CF), Youth Employment Initiative (YEI), European Social Fund (ESF) and European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) are included in the present statistics; the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund (EMFF) and European Agricultural Fund For Rural Development (EAFRD) are excluded.

3. IMPACT OF THE STATE AID MODERNISATION (SAM)
On 8 May 2012, the Commission set out an ambitious State aid reform programme in the Communication on State aid
modernisation (SAM)21. Its objective was to enable Member States to implement State aid that fosters investment,
economic growth and job creation more quickly, while leaving the Commission to focus its State aid control on cases
most liable to distort competition. SAM therefore represented a change in governance of EU State aid policy for the
purpose of better allocation of public resources, higher efficiency and better quality of policy interventions. Among
the key objectives of the reform were tangible cuts in red tape, the promotion of a better use of limited public
resources by Member States and a higher contribution of aid measures to growth.
3.1. GBER uptake
Since 2014, following a significant extension of the General Block Exemption Regulation (GBER)22 as part of the State
Aid Modernisation, there has been a surge in State aid granted without prior notification to the Commission,
indicating an important reduction in red tape. The 2018 State Aid Scoreboard confirms the benefits of the GBER,
which simplifies the aid granting procedure for Member States by authorising - without prior notification - a wide
range of measures fulfilling certain criteria and specific EU objectives which are in the common interest. For the aid
categories covered by the GBER, only cases with the biggest potential to distort competition in the single market still
require a notification and approval by the Commission before they are implemented.
Since 2015, more than 96% of new measures for which expenditure has been reported for the first time fell under the
General Block Exemption Regulation, i.e. an increase of about 28p.p. compared to 2013 (see Graph 16). Looking at all
measures for which expenditure has been reported (and not only new measures), about 82% of all measures were
block exempted in 2017, an increase of respectively about 6p.p. and 22p.p. compared to 2015 and 2013. In terms of
spending, total expenditure on GBER measures in the EU represented about 41.7 billion euros in 2017, i.e. about 38%
of total expenditure. However, when considering a simple average of Member States' practice, it appears that, in
2017, Member States spent on average about 48 % of their total spending on GBER measures, an increase of about
14p.p. compared to 2013.
21 See https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/ALL/?uri=CELEX:52012DC0209
22 See Commission Regulation (EU) N°651/2014 of 17 June 2014 declaring certain categories of aid compatible with the internal market in application of Articles 107 and 108 of the Treaty
26
Graph 16 – Use of GBER in State aid measures for which expenditure has been reported in the EU, 2010-2017

In addition to broadening the categories already covered by the previous Block Exemption Regulation, the 2014 GBER
introduced new categories of block-exempted aid: aid to innovation clusters and aid for process and organisational
innovation, aid schemes to make good the damages caused by natural disasters, social aid for transport of residents of
remote regions, aid for broadband infrastructure, aid for culture and heritage conservation (including aid schemes for
audio-visual works), aid for sport and multifunctional recreational infrastructures, and investment aid for local
infrastructure.
A further extension of the GBER was adopted in June 2017. This last revision provides a major simplification for
unproblematic investments in ports and airports23. The revision also makes it easier for public authorities to
compensate companies for the additional costs they face in the EU's outermost regions, and further increases the
maximum amount of aid allowed under the GBER for culture projects (under the rare circumstances that public
funding for culture actually constitutes State aid) and for multi-purpose sports arenas.
Compared to 2016, total GBER spending in 2017 increased for all possible objectives. In particular, GBER spending
strongly increased for broadband and local and multi recreational infrastructures (+129%), for aid to SMEs and risk
finance (+81%), for social support to individual consumers (+ 56%), for research, development and innovation
(+30%), for aid to culture and heritage conservation (+28%) and for employment (+21%) (see Graph 17).
23 In 2017, Member States reported more than 50 million EUR of State aid spending under Article 56 of the GBER, of
which respectively 7 million EUR for inland ports, 39 million EUR for maritime ports and 6 million EUR for regional airports.
27
Graph 17 – Total spending on GBER by objective (in billion EUR) in 2014, 2016 and 2017
Source: Commission services.
The high share of spending under GBER for the above objectives also demonstrates that aid could be disbursed more
quickly (see Graph 18). In particular:
• more than 80% of spending for training, R&D&I and regional development was disbursed under GBER;
• more than 50% of all aid to culture, SMEs (such as aid in the form of risk capital, aid to start-ups and
innovative SMEs) and employment.
As compared to 2014, the share increased substantially for culture (+51p.p.), R&D&I (+45p.p.), SMEs (+27p.p.) and
regional development (+15p.p.). This increase results partly from the efforts made by the Commission to cooperate
with a number of Member States with a view to adjusting certain envisaged measures to bring them in line with the
GBER.
The observed GBER uptake also complements EU policy initiatives such as i.a. the Europe 2020 Strategy; the
Programme for the Competitiveness of Enterprises and SMEs (COSME); ensuring sufficient flexibility and high amounts
of R&D&I aid in a context of strong global competition; or supporting easier deployment of broadband in line with the
EU Digital Agenda that sets ambitious goals for broadband infrastructure development to support growth in Europe.

While the aggregated figures provided above can include spending made under the previous Block Exemption
Regulation24, Table 3 focuses only on the aid disbursed under the new provisions of the 2014 GBER25, by articles, at EU
level:
• Since the application of the 2014 GBER as of 1 July 2014, the largest cumulated share of spending has been
recorded under environmental protection (Arts. 36-49 GBER) i.e. about 37% of total GBER spending, almost
all of which (86%) through Article 44 of GBER i.e. aid in the form of reductions in environmental taxes under
Directive 2003/96/EC;
• The second largest share was recorded for regional aid (Arts. 14-15 GBER) representing about 21% of all
GBER spending, of which about 63% for investment aid (Art. 14 GBER) and 37% for operating aid (Art. 15
GBER);
• A large share of cumulated total GBER spending was also recorded for aid for research, development and
innovation (Arts. 25-30 GBER) representing about 15% of GBER spending, of which about 44% under Art.
25(2)(c) GBER (experimental development), 36% under Art. 25(2)(b) GBER (industrial research) and 14%
under Art. 25(2)(b) GBER (fundamental research);
• SME aid (Arts. 17-24 GBER) represented about 7.5% of total cumulated GBER spending, reported mostly
under Art. 17 GBER, investment aid to SMEs (64%), and Art. 21 GBER, risk finance aid (26%).
• Aid for culture and heritage conservation (Art. 53 GBER) and aid for disadvantaged workers and workers with
disabilities (Arts. 32-35 GBER) represented about 7% and 4% of total cumulated GBER spending respectively. 24 In 2017, about 3.4 billion EUR of state aid was still disbursed under the old Block Exemption Regulation
(Commission Regulation (EU) No 330/2010). Indeed, although aid can only be granted during the applicability of an aid measure (i.e. it is no longer possible to grant any aid under the old BER), the State aid scoreboard focuses on aid spent, after the aided projects have been actually implemented and the beneficiaries have submitted the corresponding expense statements.

Compared to 2016, it appears that in 2017, the largest increases, in relative terms, have been registered for aid to
SMEs (+120%), aid for broadband infrastructures (+144%), training aid (47%) and R&D&I (+45%) (see Graph 19).
Graph 19 – GBER - Share of spending by main articles in 2016 and 2017

3.2. Enabling faster decisions
The large GBER uptake observed implies that State aid measures were processed more rapidly than in the past. In fact,
the duration for the assessment of notified measures by the Commission has remained broadly stable at about 5
months over the period 2013-2017. However, when taking into account the increasing share of block-exempted
measures implemented by Member States, it appears that, on average, State aid measures can be implemented much
more quickly than in the past. At EU level, the estimated average duration before possible implementation decreased
from about 3.3 months before SAM to about 2.8 months over the period 2016-2017 i.e. a decrease of 15% in the
average duration necessary before the possible granting and implementation of State aid measures (see Graph 20).
31
Graph 20 – Estimated average duration before possible granting/implementation (in months)

3.3. Focus enforcement on cases with the biggest impact on the internal market
While the time needed by the Commission to assess notified measures has remained stable, notified measures that
might seriously harm competition or fragment the Single Market are subject to more careful scrutiny and tend to
cover bigger budgets and spending than in the past (see Graph 21), in line with the Commission's approach to be 'big
on big and small on small'.
In 2017, about 230 cases were notified to the Commission. The average annual budget of notified measures
implemented was about 230 million EUR, an increase of about 18% and 126% compared to 2015 and 2013
respectively. At the same time, average reported spending increased even more steadily to reach about 85 million
EUR per notified measure in 2017, an increase of about 41% and 278% compared to 2015 and 2013 respectively. Also,
at EU level, the consistency between planned amounts (aid budgets) and the actual spending reported has continued
to improve progressively, ranging from about 15% in 2013 to about 25% in 2015 and 31% in 2017.

3.4. Foster sustainable, smart and inclusive growth
Over time, State aid control has been recalibrated to progressively shift support from sector-specific aid to tackling
horizontal objectives of common interest, including cohesion. While about 50% of total State aid was still allocated to
supporting sectoral development, rescue and restructuring in the early nineties, it currently only represents a very
small proportion of aid disbursed.
In 2017, about 94% of total State aid spending was allocated to horizontal objectives of common interest ("good
aid"), an increase of about 2p.p. and 11p.p. respectively, compared to 2015 and 2010. On the contrary, State aid
spending for rescuing and restructuring companies in difficulty decreased significantly over the last 5 years, by about
15% annually, highlighting the fact that if aid to companies in difficulty is still permitted, stricter conditions apply to
ensure that the most appropriate and transparent restructuring will restore and sustain the company's long-term
viability.

4. AID IN THE CONTEXT OF THE FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC CRISIS
During the last global financial crisis, the European Commission played a very active role to help Member States
provide a coordinated and effective response. The State aid framework was adapted to focus on financial stability as
an overarching objective, whilst ensuring that the aid and distortions of competition between banks and across
Member States were kept to the minimum.
The 2018 Scoreboard presents State aid (approved and used) to financial institutions in the period 2008-2017, by aid
instrument (see Table 4, Annexes 4 and 5). The data include both the maximum amounts of aid that Member States
were allowed to grant (State aid approved) and the amounts of aid actually disbursed (State aid used). In general, the
amount of approved State aid to the financial sector stabilised and the amount of State aid used further decreased
compared to previous years.
The level of State aid approved in 2017 somewhat increased, compared to 2016, for both capital like-instruments and
liquidity support instruments. More importantly, State aid approved in both 2016 and 2017 remains significant. This is
due to the continued necessity to address pockets of vulnerability remaining in some Member States. Values are
expected to decrease more significantly once those legacy banking cases will have been addressed.
State aid used in 2017 was at its lowest level since the beginning of the crisis, however, except for capital aid
instruments where around EUR 12.1 billion were employed to address legacy cases requiring recapitalisation aid. In
addition, the European banking sector relies less and less on government guarantees, as shown by the reduced use of
liquidity aid support. This continuing decrease of State aid used shows that legacy issues are being addressed, while
the European banking sector is able to find more and more of the necessary liquidity on the market.
