EU funding in Spain (2012)
Operating budgetary balance 2012 (% of GNI)
Operating budgetary balance: The dierence between what a country receives from and pays into the EU budget. There are many possible methods of calculating budgetary balances. In its nancial report,
the Commission uses a method based on the same principles as the calculation of the correction of budgetary imbalances granted to the United Kingdom (the UK correction). It is, however, important
to point out that constructing estimates of budgetary balances is merely an accounting exercise of the purely nancial costs and benets that each Member State derives from the Union and it gives no
indication of many of the other benets gained from EU policies such as those relating to the internal market and economic integration, not to mention political stability and security.
