Financial Impact on EEA EFTA Contribution• Decrease in focus on Cohesion and the
CAP - Outside of the scope of EEA EFTA Participation
• Increase in commitments towards Internal Market initiatives and Programmes - areas where EEA EFTA Participates
=> Absolute Increase in EEA Contribution
Financial Impact on EEA EFTA Contribution• UK’s departure - Currently carries around
15% of the EU28 GDP• Recalculating the 2019 proportionality
factor on the basis of the EU27 GDP -EEA EFTA contribution = 2.83% (2.42% EU28)
=> Relative Increase in EEA Contribution.
