JEREMIE: A new way of using EU Structural Funds to promote SME access to finance via Holding Funds
The JEREMIE initiative (“Joint European Resources for Micro to Medium Enterprises”) offers EU Member States, through their national or regional Managing Authorities, the opportunity to use part of their European Union (EU) Structural Funds to finance small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) by means of equity, loans or guarantees, through a revolving Holding Fund acting as an umbrella fund.
