Public aid
Assistance in obtaining individual public aid and compliance assessment
For companies, public aid is one of the possible sources of financing for investment-intensive and complex projects. The scope of this aid and the conditions for receiving it are set by the European Commission, which must approve the individual projects. At Deloitte, we can assess whether your project meets the conditions for public aid and guide you through the entire approval process from A to Z. We will also assess whether the public aid you have received in the past meets all requirements and whether you are at risk of having to return the public aid to a provider, for example.
Public aid is available for the wide variety of projects:
- Are you a foreign investor preparing a major investment or are you looking to expand an existing business?
- Are you planning to invest in a major decarbonisation or other environmental project?
- Are you preparing to acquire a share in a company with state, regional, or municipality ownership?
- Or is your business in a difficult situation and you are preparing a restructuring?
With our extensive cross-sector expertise and the opportunity to cooperate with our colleagues in Brussels, we can comprehensively assess public aid opportunities, implement individual projects, and eliminate any potential risks – all tailored to your needs.
