Other financial info
For a much fuller breakdown of income and expenditure, as well as the current balance sheet, please refer to Bruegel's Annual Report 2016, available for download at www.bruegel.org. Bruegel has published information on income and expenditure since inception in 2004, all the records are available via our website.
Bruegel does not have a budget for direct representation of "interests" as it is not an interest representing organisation - it is a public good with varied public and private funding, with checks and balances in place to safeguard its independence, even from its members and other stakeholders.
Bruegel is fully committed to transparency, and has been since inception, and discloses both income and spending each year as well as disclosing the outside interests (financial and non-financial) of all its scholars and management.
Bruegel has a number of other measures in place to guard against capture by specific interests including public declarations of outside interests (both financial and non-financial). -

Meetings
Meetings
25 meetings found. Download meetings
The list below only covers meetings held since November 2014 with commissioners, their cabinet members or directors-general at the European Commission; other lobby meetings with lower-level staff may have taken place, but the European Commission doesn't proactively publish information about these meetings. For more information about which commissioner is responsible for which portfolio, check out this link: https://commissioners.ec.europa.eu/index_en All information below comes from European Commission web pages.
1 July 2024: We have noted that some meetings are appearing in duplicate, ie. some meetings seem to be listed twice. This seems to be because the Commission changes some element of a meeting data after the meeting has first been listed, which causes LobbyFacts to register it as a new meeting. We are investigating further.
