Description
Summary:Public expenses are often evaluated in terms of their effectiveness. This is caused by the character of financial resources and by the fact that public activities are dependent on those resources. This paper addresses the evaluation of financial subsidies within the Operational Programme Environment 2007–2013. From the perspective of financial subsidies, the Operational Programme Environment was the second largest programme in the Czech Republic offering almost 4.92 billion EUR. Verifying the effectiveness of the management of these public funds is highly desirable, as the use of public funds is associated with a risk of over-exploitation. The main aim of the paper is to evaluate the supported projects and to offer new indicators. The assessment was based on the 3E survey. The results of the research confirmed that among the evaluated projects the desired outcomes are achieved at greater efficiency.
