Coronavirus outbreak - list of Member states measures approved under Articles 107(2)b, 107(3)b and 107(3)c TFEU and under the State Aid Temporary Framework

On Thursday 19 March, the European Commission adopted a Temporary Framework to enable Member States to use the full flexibility foreseen under State aid rules to support their economy and help overcome the extremely difficult situation triggered by the Coronavirus outbreak. The Temporary Framework is based on Article 107(3)(b) TFEU and complements other possibilities available to Member States to mitigate the social-economic impact of the coronavirus outbreak in line with EU State aid rules, notably the possibility under Article 107(2)b TFEU to compensate specific companies or specific sectors for the damages directly caused by exceptional occurrences, such as the coronavirus outbreak.

Since the beginning of the coronavirus outbreak, the following State aid measures have been adopted under Article 107(2)b Article 107(3)b, Article 107(3)c TFEU and under the Temporary Framework. Amendments were adopted on 3 April, 8 May, 29 June and 13 October 2020 extending the scope of the Temporary Framework.

The Temporary Framework will be in place until the end of June 2021, except for recapitalisation measures for which the Commission has extended this period until the end of September 2021.
