Reimbursement of the admissible expenses may be distributed in two payments, as follows:

  • advance of 50% within 30 days of signature of the agreement, subject to the presentation of a bank guarantee for the same amount whose validity lasts for the entire period of project development;
  • advance of a further 30% of the reimbursement, following presentation of the accounting report for 80% of the expenses;
  • balance of the remaining 20% - or the entire amount in a single payment when the advance has not been taken - at the conclusion of the development phase: in either case, only upon presentation of the accounting paperwork for the admissible expenses.
