Official Journal C 042 , 21/02/2003 P. 0002 - 0002


Reference/discount rates applicable from 1 January 2003

(2003/C 42/02)

(Text with EEA relevance)

>TABLE>

These rates are fixed on the basis of the method for setting and updating the reference/discount rates published in Official Journal of the European Communities C 273 of 9 September 1997, p. 3. Technical adaptations to this method were made by Commission notice published in Official Journal of the European Communities C 241, 26.8.1999, p. 9. Following the adoption of the euro by Greece on 1 January 2001, the reference rate for Greece is identical to that applied to the eleven Member States that had already adopted the euro.

Publication of these rates is required under Commission Regulations (EC) No 68/2001 (recital 9), (EC) No 69/2001 (recital 6) and (EC) No 70/2001 (recital 10) of 12 January 2001 (OJ L 10, 13.1.2001, pp. 20, 30 and 33) on the application of Articles 87 and 88 of the EC Treaty to training aid, "de minimis" aid and aid for small and medium-sized enterprises.
