European Long-Term Investors Association (ELTI)

The ''European Long-Term Investors Association'' represent a European-wide network of National Promotional Banks and Institutions (NPBIs) who offer financial solutions tailored to the specific needs of their respective country and economy. As of May 2020, the association gathers 31 European long-term investors from 23 Member States across the European Union and Turkey. With a combined balance sheet of € 1.7 trillion, ELTI's goal is to promote long-term investment in close alignment with the objectives and initiatives developed by the European Union in order to foster sustainable, smart and inclusive growth and job creation. Multilateral financial institutions complement the activities at national level with specific cross-border solutions or investments with a European impact. Following the specific public mission of each member the business model of each institution differs from country to country including different products and approaches. This is the same for multilateral ELTI members. Most of the members offer various debt-products but not all members have a mandate for investment in equity. The Association promotes and attracts quality long-term investment in the real economy.

Given the rapid changes our societies are undergoing and the 'short-termist' tendency of many economic and political actors, the need for long-term vision is more important than ever. The implementation of far-reaching global objectives such as building sustainable infrastructure for sustainable investment, fighting climate change or innovating in our resources consumption and in production technologies is not only an absolute necessity: it is also a path, in itself, to recovery from the current crisis on a new basis to avoid its return and ensure the well-being of future generations.

ELTI Brochure: Fight the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic

Fight the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic: The contribution of National Promotional Banks and Institutions in Europe

ELTI published an electronic brochure on the direct contribution to fighting the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. In this brochure you will find 15 examples of investments and activities from 9 ELTI members and 7 EU Member States. ELTI members have provided funds and taken multiple large-scale risks to fight against the pandemic. These include the financing of companies, projects or initiatives which address the global health situation directly like through biotech firms to develop effective vaccines, production of more efficient sanitising devices, investments in intensive-care facilities or agile high-tech companies which provide an AI-platform for a more efficient exchange between research institutions. All of these were and still are important elements to overcoming the pandemic. These ventures serve as an important dimension of NPBIs role within their countries and societies. European citizens are directly benefitting from these investments. All examples demonstrate the close connection of NPBIs with the local, regional and national markets.

Background

The recession following the COVID-19 pandemic grants an increasing role to housing, making it especially harder for the most deprived to work in decent conditions. At the same time, social housing is considered an essential lever to achieve energy efficiency objectives and fight against energy poverty, as set out by the Renovation Wave. It is finally a key principle in the implementation of the European Pillar of Social Rights. As a result, adequate and sufficient sources of funding are required.

This webinar will be the occasion to explore different models of financing of the social housing sector in Europe and how they can be articulated. National Promotional Banks and Institutions (NPBIs), long-term investors, very active in financing social housing will share their experience in articulating national public resources, EU funding and private capital, along social impact private investors and experts on the field.
