Las disparidades pueden entenderse como el resultado de un fallo del mercado. Por lo tanto, es preciso llevar a cabo intervenciones que guarden relación con un proceso de regeneración. A fin de abordar este problema, la Comisión Europea decidió presentar la iniciativa de Ayuda Europea Conjunta en Apoyo de Inversiones Sostenibles en Zonas Urbanas (JESSICA), como parte de la política de cohesión ejecutada en el período comprendido entre 2007 y 2013. JESSICA es un instrumento financiero rotatorio que se centra en el desarrollo sostenible de las ciudades, y 11 Estados miembros decidieron poner a prueba la solución propuesta. El primer país en firmar el acuerdo fue Polonia, que implantó JESSICA en cinco regiones (Pomorskie, Mazowieckie, Śląskie, Wielkopolskie y Zachodniopomorskie). Este enfoque innovador entrañó numerosos desafíos para todas las partes interesadas (actores europeos, regionales y locales procedentes tanto del sectorpúblico como del privado) que participaron en la planificación y la implementación de la iniciativa. La metodología empleada se basa en el paradigma positivista, que examina las relaciones causales entre las intervenciones públicas (proyectos) y sus efectos. Se ha adoptado un enfoque realista en las técnicas de evaluación, así como en nuestra propia evaluación de todos los proyectos, realizada por expertos, que se han fundamentado a través de numerosas herramientas analíticas como el agrupamiento jerárquico y aglomerativo. De las principales conclusiones del estudio se desprende que los proyectos ejecutados en Polonia tan solo cumplen parcialmente los supuestos teóricos, y que las imensiones social y horizontal del desarrollo sostenible han estado infrarrepresentadas. Se observan ciertas divergencias a nivel regional en lo que respecta al enfoque modelo, y una región destaca en cuanto a la calidad de los proyectos (Zachodniopomorskie). Los proyectos relacionados con el patrimonio histórico o cultural, seguidos de los que se centran en la reconversión de los terrenos industriales abandonados, son los que mejor reflejan la complejidad del desarrollo urbano sostenible10aEU10aEU funds10afinancial engineering10aJESSICA10aPoland10asustainable development10aurban regeneration1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr  uhttps://hdl.handle.net/11362/4868502358nam a2200253   4500008004100000020001800041245011800059210006900177260003100246300001000277520154600287653002001833653000701853653001301860653002601873653001201899653001101911653002201922653001701944653002301961100001801984700002302002856007902025       2022                        eng d  a978311076219800aFinancial Engineering in Sustainable Funding of Urban Development in the EU Reflections on the JESSICA Initiative0 aFinancial Engineering in Sustainable Funding of Urban Developmen  aBerlin/ BostonbDe Gruyter  a1-2433 aThis theoretically rooted and research-based book provides insights on the JESSICA funding model which – unlike the traditional non-repayable aid – focuses on supporting sustainable urban development projects in a repayable and recyclable way. Looking through the lens of the JESSICA financial engineering mechanism used in urban transformation, it examines the functioning and performance thereof and formulates policy recommendations for the future. The aim of this volume is to contribute to a deeper understanding of the JESSICA sustainable funding model by exploring its repayable assistance mechanism to support sustainable urban development projects. The authors make several noteworthy contributions to the literature on EU cohesion policy and shed light on the use of the repayable instruments within public interventions, while providing, for the first time, a critical analysis of the JESSICA sustainable funding model from the holistic perspective which is especially relevant for supporting sustainable urban development. Financial Engineering in Sustainable Funding of Urban Development in the EU provides policy-significant findings that are important for EU cohesion policy in the field of repayable assistance to be reinvested in the long term in urban and regional transformation. Includes an in-depth exploration of the particular aspects of EU cohesion policy Provides theoretical discussion and empirics illustrated by figures and maps.

It is supposed to provide a more efficient alternative to the traditional EU grants for the implementation of developmental projects. The funding available under the JESSICA framework relies on a repayable and recyclable basis. This means that it not only offers revolving funds, increasing financing capacity of EU cohesion policy, but also creates scope for cooperation between public authorities, financial institutions, and private investors to support implementation of this policy. Since JESSICA supports projects being part of an integrated plan for sustainable urban development, its primary challenge is to combine the objectives focused on urban sustainability and policy intervention with revolving financial models that assume, in principle, the long-term viability of projects. However, taking into particular consideration the needs of urban areas and the EU cohesion policy objective on the one hand, and the organisation and operation of financing engineering instruments on the other, JESSICA seems to be a very ambitious undertaking. The evaluations carried out, up to now, have been mainly focused on its legal and institutional framework, or limited to some selected project. Our study concerns the assessment of all projects implemented within the framework of the JESSICA initiative in five Polish regions, namely: Pomorskie, Mazowieckie, Śląskie, Wielkopolskie and Zachodniopomorskie, in the years between 2007-2015. To do so, we designed a methodological approach for assessing the extent to which projects implemented under the JESSICA initiative have contributed to achieving its fundamental assumptions. Subsequently, we made an assessment of the results of JESSICA through the conceptual lens of sustainable urban development. The main findings show that the range of achieving the assumptions of the JESSICA funding model by projects diverges widely. Many projects were quite well adjusted to the requirements but there were also projects that fulfilled them to a very limited extent.</p>10acohesion policy10aJESSICA10arevenue-generating projects10arevolving instruments10asustainable urban development1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr  uhttps://euro.ue.poznan.pl/pl/content/jessica-initiative-support-sustainable-urban-development-projects-poland01668nas a2200217   4500008004100000020002200041022001400063245012500077210007000202260001200272300001200284490000800296520092800304653003801232653001201270653001701282653003401299100002301333700001801356856007601374       2018                        eng d  a978-83-63563-51-6  a0079-349300aOcena dopasowania projektów realizowanych w ramach inicjatywy Jessica do potrzeb występujących na obszarach miejskich0 aOcena dopasowania projektów realizowanych w ramach inicjatywy Je  c11/2018  a233-2460 v1843 a<p style="text-align: justify;">Regeneration – an integrated process of activities undertaken in the spatial, social and economic dimensions should lead to the improvement of the living conditions of inhabitants of degraded urban areas. The European Union in 2007-2013 allocated financial resources for this purpose in the form of JESSICA initiative which is based on financial engineering mechanism. Experiences gained so far allow conclusions to be drawn that JESSICA is a highly financially-efficient instrument but, however, not always delivers the desired outcomes in the spatial and social sphere. The scope of projects often is limited to infrastructural investments and does not reflect the complexity of regeneration process. In the article the authors analyse experiences of the five Polish regions with the use of JESSICA, point out main problems and formulate recommendations for sustainable urban policy.</p>10afinancial engineering instruments10aJESSICA10aregeneration10asustainable urban development1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr  uhttp://journals.pan.pl/dlibra/publication/125745/edition/109724/content00768nas a2200241   4500008004100000020002200041245014300063210006900206250000600275260002400281300001200305490000600317653001300323653002600336653001200362653001100374653001700385653001600402653001800418100002300436700001800459856004900477       2016                        eng d  a978-83-7417-918-800aThe use of repayable financial instruments in the process of regeneration of degraded urban areas on the example of the JESSICA initiative0 ause of repayable financial instruments in the process of regener  a1  aPoznańbPUEB Press  a115-1360 v110aEU funds10afinancial instruments10aJESSICA10aPoland10aregeneration10aurban areas10aWielkopolskie1 aMusiałkowska, Ida1 aIdczak, Piotr  uhttps://depot.ceon.pl/handle/123456789/12083no socket
