Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 480/2009 of 25 May 2009 (codified version) established a Guarantee Fund for external actions (‘the Fund’) in order to repay the Union’s creditors in the event of default by beneficiaries of loans granted or guaranteed by the European Union. In accordance with Article 7 of the Regulation, the Commission entrusted the financial management of the Fund to the European Investment Bank (EIB) under an Agreement signed between the Community and the EIB on 23 November 1994 in Brussels and on 25 November 1994 in Luxembourg (‘the Agreement’), and subsequently amended on 17/23 September 1996, 8 May 2002, 25 February 2008, 20 October 2010 and 9 November 2010. Under Article 8(2) of the Agreement, by 1 March of each year the EIB must send the Commission an annual status report on the Fund and the management thereof (‘Statement of financial performance’) and a financial statement for the Fund for the preceding year (‘Statement of financial position of the Fund’). Further details of the report covering the year 2012 can be found in the Commission Staff Working Document (SWD). In addition, Article 8 of the Regulation requires the Commission to send a report to the European Parliament, the Council and the Court of Auditors on the situation of the Fund and the management thereof for each financial year by 31 May of the following year. |
