Guidelines on Rescue and Restructuring Aid

The Guidelines on Rescue and Restructuring Aid are rules established by the European Commission to manage government support for struggling companies. When a business faces financial difficulties, it may need assistance to survive or restructure its operations. These guidelines ensure that such aid is provided in a fair manner, helps the company recover, and does not unfairly distort competition. The rules aim to balance the need for economic stability with the protection of a competitive market, ensuring that support is temporary, limited, and encourages companies to return to viability without excessive reliance on public funding.
