This article summarizes current issues regarding preparation and implementation of EU projects. Cohesion policy and regional policy as a main part of cohesion policy are the most important policies of European Union. This could be view also from the volume of financial resources allocated for these policies. One of the main current research issues is analysing efficiency and effectiveness of these funds. Examining the effectiveness of funds we can see a number of shortcomings, from which the most significant are deadweight loss, lack of application of the principles of partnership, administrative burden focused on expenses and not results, the low multiplier effects and little focus on the priorities of promoting competitiveness. The author have analysed several of them directly in the case study of Banská Bystrica region.

The membership expansion of EU in 2004 brought some challenges for post-communist countries which were expected to approach the EU average. Regional policy of EU provided new member states with significant support in order to catch up. Although cross-country convergence appeared, convergence within the countries is still not clear. Institutions can play a crucial role in economic development, especially universities. During 2007 – 2015 were Slovak higher education institutions supported mostly in convergence regions and the support should be seen in their better performance. A main goal of this paper is to find out whether the efficiency of Slovak public higher education institutions in convergence regions changed comparing to Bratislava region after the first entire programming period 2007 – 2013. A Data Envelopment Analysis is applied to compare years 2007 and 2015. The results show that public higher education institutions in less-developed regions in Slovakia indeed experienced a convergence comparing to Bratislava region, especially in the area of research that was mostly supported from Structural Funds.
