The European Commission has today adopted a positive assessment of Sweden’s
recovery and resilience plan. This is a key step paving the way for the EU
to disburse €3.3 billion in grants to Sweden under the Recovery and
Resilience Facility (RRF). This financing will support the implementation
of the crucial investment and reform measures outlined in Sweden’s recovery
and resilience plan. It will play a crucial role in enabling Sweden to
emerge stronger from the coronavirus pandemic.
The RRF is the key instrument at the heart of NextGenerationEU. It will
provide up to €800 billion (in current prices) to support investments and
reforms across the EU. The Swedish plan forms part of an unprecedented
coordinated EU response to the coronavirus crisis, to address common
European challenges by embracing the green and digital transitions, to
strengthen economic and social resilience and the cohesion of the single
market.
