Beschreibung:

The compliance of national funding and EU funds with EU State aid rules is under strict control of the European Commission. In addition to existing difficulties, practitioners currently also face the challenge of understanding the changes which are to come as a consequence of the European Commission’s State aid modernisation process. This European seminar offers the opportunity to learn more about the specific scope of State aid rules for National Funding and EU Funds and to gain certainty about upcoming changes. Among others participants will learn:

• How to identify State aid

• Which types of State aid are compatible with the rules of the TFEU

• Which exemptions are laid down by the EU Commission

• How to avoid the risk of State aid recovery

• How to assess whether a State aid is admissible

• How to cumulate different types of aid

• How to interpret and apply EU State aid rules in practice, particularly the regulations, guidelines and notices that have been developed by the EU Commission over the last years
