EU cooperation portfolio
The EU's projects, programmes and agreements in Asia-Pacific: where the money goes, what is missing, how it compares. For what threatens these interests see Threats to the EU.
All totals on this page add up EU budget allocations to the countries covered. They leave out EUR 192,810M announced in 9 programme-wide envelopes, investment targets and member-state measures, which are listed apart. Per-country figures count bilateral programmes only.
Comparative overview of major international development actors operating in regions where the EU is present. Budgets in USD millions for international actors, EUR millions for EU.
Side-by-side comparison of EU and international actor engagement by sector. EU budgets in EUR M, international budgets in USD M. The two columns are not like for like: the EU column counts budget allocations only, while the other actors' figures are announced project values, loans and private investment included.
