The Juncker Commission’s top priority for the period 2014-2019 is to get Europe growing again and to increase the number of jobs without creating new debt. Investment has been missing from Europe's economics in recent years. Alongside making structural reforms and pursuing responsible management of finances, Europe also needs to restore investment levels – to overcome the crisis, kick-start jobs and growth and sustain them.

One part of this priority is the Investment Plan for Europe. The Investment Plan focuses on removing obstacles to investment, providing visibility and technical assistance to investment projects and making smarter use of new and existing financial resources. To achieve these goals, the plan is active is three areas:

+ mobilising investments of at least €315 billion in three years
+ supporting investment in the real economy
+ creating an investment friendly environment.
