Omissions

• The €100 billion record is an EIB Group figure (EIB + European Investment Fund), not the EIB alone; the EIB's own 2025 signatures were €86 billion.
• The figure refers to 'new financing' (signatures/approved financing) for calendar year 2025, announced by the EIB Group in early 2026, before the session date of 2026-07-06.
• The claim describes 'new investments', whereas the official metric is 'new financing' provided by the EIB Group.
