This dataset presents information on EU payments to the Regional Policy supported programmes.
Annual snapshots are provided in the data and therefore the data must be filtered by year to have an accurate view of the total EU planned amount and payments made.
Data is reported on cumulative basis, i.e. the amounts shown in 2017 represent the cumulative payments made from the beginning of the programming period (2014-2017 up to date).
The dataset is updated on a daily basis.

This dataset includes the figures by Fund (European Regional Development Fund, European Social Fund, Cohesion Fund,Youth Employment Initiative).

‘Major Projects’ are usually large-scale infrastructure projects in transport, environment and other sectors such as culture, education, energy or ICT. As they receive more than € 50 million in support through the ERDF and/or Cohesion Fund, they are subject to an assessment and a specific decision by the European Commission.

This dataset provides information on planned total and EU financing under the different ESI Funds (2014-2020) in current prices. The data is taken from the adopted financial tables and is broken down by fund, programme, priority axis, thematic objective and category of region (more developed, less developed, etc. where available). It is updated daily to reflect any modifications (i.e; thematic reallocations) agreed between the Member States and the Commission.

The data cover the more than 530 programmes and includes the EU and national co-financing covered by the adoption decision. Financial allocations in the programme financial table may change over time (i.e. transfers between themes, between funds). The first wave of major changes took place at end 2017 as a result of the allocation of the "technical adjustment" and the increase in the allocation to the Youth Employment initiative.

- For ERDF, ESF and CF the "priority" columns relate to the priority axis (financing blocks) in the programmes; the "investment priority" relates to the fixed lists of defined investment objectives set in the three specific fund Regulations.
- For the European Agricultural fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) detail is also provided by EAFRD "Focus areas" and "Measures" (the EAFRD Focus Areas are detailed in the EAFRD fund regulation - Article 5 and the EAFRD measures in Article 13-40 of the relevant Implementing Regulation).

Cohesion policy is the EU’s main investment policy, providing funding equivalent to 8.5% of government capital investment in the EU, a figure which rises to 41% for the EU 13 and to over 50% for a number of countries.

This figure compares the allocations of Cohesion Policy per Member State to public investment (Gross fixed capital formation by general government).
The source for the allocations is the cohesion open data platform and for public investment it is Eurostat and ECFIN AMECO.
