How does the Advisory Hub work?

10/11/2015 European Investment Bank Group 6

Implications of the Hub for JASPERS & its clients…..

1. MAs/Commission

No change to core mission or commitment to quality

Same people, same service

JASPERS will continue to advise and support ESIF major projects

….but we also aim to leverage this available expertise to the benefit of the Hub….

2. Added Value from the Hub

….EC and EIB have therefore agreed on JASPERS contribution based on additional resources for additional tasks…..

Expanding the envelope of service, because most projects don’t fit neatly into one single box

Potential support earlier/later in project cycle beyond normal JASPERS scope

Smaller and/or heterogeneous schemes, not necessarily supported by ESIF

More flexibility, access to wider expertise and other instruments
