Resources for the Investment for growth and jobs goal shall be allocated among the following three categories of NUTS level 2 regions: less developed regions, whose GDP per capita is less than 75 % of the average GDP of the EU-27; transition regions, whose GDP per capita is between 75 % and 90 % of the average GDP of the EU-27; more developed regions, whose GDP per capita is above 90 % of the average GDP of the EU-27. The classification of regions under one of the three categories of regions shall be determined on the basis of how the GDP per capita of each region, measured in purchasing power parities (PPS) and calculated on the basis of Union figures for the period 2007 - 2009, relates to the average GDP of the EU-27 for the same reference period.
