In the next LIFE programme, projects will be selected for funding solely on the basis of their quality and demonstration potential - a more transparent method than the current national allocations whereby a share of funds is indicatively attributed to each member state. Instead, capacity-building measures have been introduced to help countries and regions with a low selection rate of projects to achieve higher project quality.

The CIP Programme (running from 2007-2013) has helped SMEs to find finance they need to operate, develop or grow at different stage of development. CIP aims at making funding for SMEs easier through the development of the most relevant channel for SME external finance: a bank loan. This is of paramount importance for the vast majority of SMEs. The programme also provides measures focused on the particular needs of SMEs with high growth potential, for which equity investments can be a more suitable source of finance. The CIP financial instruments are managed by the European Investment Fund through national and regional financial intermediaries (e.g. banks and venture capital funds) in the EU Member States. The architecture of the programme mobilises financial institutions to provide additional finance to SMEs.
