How we study impact

Tracking project results

The EIB Additionality and Impact Measurement (AIM) framework has been developed to further strengthen the assessment, measurement and reporting on the results and impacts of the Bank’s operations outside of the EU.

Assessing impacts on jobs and growth

The EIB works with the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission to assess the impact of the EIB Group and EFSI on jobs and growth in Europe, using a macroeconomic model called RHOMOLO.

Microeconomic impact studies

These in-depth research studies investigate the links between direct project outputs and outcomes and broader impact objectives.

EIB-GDN impact studies

The EIB has partnered with the Global Development Network to study the impact of projects in sub-Saharan African, Caribbean and Pacific countries, under a training and mentorship programme for local researchers.
