The European Investment Bank Group’s contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals
Year: 2023
Content-Type: Report
Description: In financial and project output and outcome terms, the EIB’s methodology for SDG reporting is comparable to those adopted by other multilateral development banks. All EIB-supported projects are designed to have positive socioeconomic impact as well as sound financial returns. The impact of the Bank’s work is measured by gathering a detailed set of output and outcome data for all its projects. This ensures that the tangible benefits of the Bank’s activities are calculated not only in the context of each project, but also at the sectoral, national and international level. The EIB’s mapping methodology defines the relationship between its projectlevel indicators and the SDGs. All indicators are mapped to the appropriate SDGs independently of project context, and each indicator may be mapped to up to two different SDGs. Each project thus contributes to all of the SDGs to which its data has been mapped. This approach takes into account the full range of interactions and interlinkages among the SDGs and minimises the number of arbitrary decisions required in the mapping process.
