In 2015 the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) invested over €1.4 billion in 37 projects across the southern and eastern Mediterranean (SEMED) region. The investments were made in the energy and renewable energy sectors, as well as in infrastructure, agribusiness and small and medium-sized enterprises.

The total EBRD investment in the four SEMED countries – Egypt, Jordan, Morocco and Tunisia – since 2012 reached 3.4 billion in 83 projects, 70 % of those in the private sector.

Hildegard Gacek, Managing Director for the SEMED region, said: “EBRD investment in these four countries has accelerated, reflecting the significant role that we can play across all sectors of the economy.”
