  7. An efficient delivery The direct management of CEF proved efficient, with a strong project pipeline focused on EU policy objectives, a competitive selection process and full involvement of Member States A competitive selection process - CEF Transport (€ billion) – end 2017

  8. Focusing on EU added value • CEF is a key instrument to support the EU policy objectives relating to connectivity, decarbonisation and digitalisation • CEF brings high added-value, as compared to what could be achieved by the Member States alone, by supporting projects with a cross-border dimension, building missing links, removing bottlenecks as well as EU-wide new systems in traffic management and safety (e.g. SESAR, ERTMS) • The specific objectives of CEF are well aligned with the Union's goals, targeting continued market failures in the TENs and concentrating the support on public goods of a European dimension.
