(26) The CEF support to broadband deployment should complement assistance provided under other Union programmes and initiatives, including the European Structural and Investment Funds (ESI Funds), in cases where an ex-ante assessment identifies market failures or sub-optimal investment situations and where so decided by managing authorities. CEF financial assistance to broadband deployment should contribute to Member States' efforts both directly and by providing an investment vehicle for voluntary, ring-fenced contributions from other sources, including ESI Funds, thus allowing Member States to take advantage of the know-how and scale-effects of Union-managed facilities with a view to increasing the efficiency of public spending.
