As long as the ESM has not been activated and provided that the effective lending capacity is not less than 500 billion, the proceeds from the investment of the ESM paid-in capital will be returned to the Member States, after deductions for operational costs.
Niikaua kui ESMi ei ole aktiveeritud ja tingimusel, et laenuandmisvõime kokku ei ole väiksem kui 500 miljardit, tagastatakse ESMi sissemakstud kapitali investeerimisest saadud tulud, millest on maha arvatud mehhanismi tegevuskulud, liikmesriikidele.
