The Cohesion Fund concerns Member States with a Gross National Income (GNI) per inhabitant of less than 90% of the EU-average. Compared to 2007-2013, Spain will no longer be eligible for funding from the Cohesion Fund (Spain is currently eligible to a phase-out fund because its GNI is less than the EU-15 average). In 2014-2020 Cyprus will receive phasing-out support. For the rest, all other country beneficiaries are the same as in 2007-2013.
