They complement this Regulation by (i) giving further guidance on eligibility, (ii) providing a risk framework for operations, (iii) defining sector and geographic diversification thresholds, and (iv) defining criteria to assess the contribution to the EFSI objectives to facilitate prioritisation.\nThe investment guidelines only apply to EFSI operations relating to the debt and equity instruments referred to in Article 10(2)(a) of this Regulation and are thus not applicable to EFSI operations relating to the instruments referred to in Article 10(2)(b).",
