Construction SMEs face ongoing financial challenges due to past and frequent economic crises and inflationary pressures. These factors, combined with a projected sectoral slowdown, make access to finance and funding a critical issue for companies and building owners alike.
With the European Green Deal and Renovation Wave setting ambitious renovation goals, long-term, consistent funding will be essential to support construction SMEs in achieving sustainable building outcomes. EBC advocates for accessible financing solutions that empower SMEs to meet these demands effectively.
