EIB Vice-President responsible for operations in Germany, Ambroise Fayolle, said: "Air transport is an international business. Good flight connections are an important location factor, especially in an economy like Germany’s which is strongly geared towards exports. I therefore particularly welcome the continuation of our successful cooperation with Fraport and the conclusion of this finance contract. As the EU bank, we see a high-performance European air transport network as a guarantee for the mobility of people and access to markets in an increasingly interconnected global economy."
