Fi-compass guides users through the full life cycle of financial instruments deployed under the main EU shared management funds: ERDF/CF, EAFRD, ESF+, EMFAF and AMIF. These instruments can be set up by Member States and regions to channel EU resources into projects on the ground, either alone or combined with grants.


The platform brings together practical resources - how-to guides, factsheets, case studies, podcasts, networking events and face-to-face training - alongside country-level data on financial instruments already deployed across the EU. For the construction ecosystem, several thematic areas are particularly relevant, notably energy efficiency, urban development and the combination of financial instruments with grants - all central to financing building renovation, sustainable infrastructure and the green transition at regional and local level.
