Paragraph 16
Paragraph 16
16. Highlights the importance of the new EU investment instrument, the European Fund for Strategic Investments (EFSI), which should be fully operational in September 2015, and emphasises that it should be complementary and additional to the ESI Funds; points out that the EFSI is not clearly linked to the Europe 2020 strategy, but that through its objectives it contributes to the implementation of the strategy by using public money to leverage private investment with a view to generating EUR 315 billion in investments over a three-year period; stresses, moreover, the imperative of ensuring full coherence and synergies between all EU instruments, in order to avoid overlapping or contradictions among them or between the different levels of policy implementation; appreciates that the review of the Europe 2020 strategy, as the EU’s long-term strategic framework for growth and jobs, must address this challenge with a view to using all the available resources effectively and achieving the expected results as regards the overarching strategic goals;
