The aim of this paper is to investigate how EU how EU state aid policy addresses the problem the problem of the additionality of state aid for research, development and innovation. The methods used include a literature review of both theoretical and practical studies and document analysis. The formalistic approach taken in the majority of cases in the ex-ante state aid control requires further studies on the actual effects of implemented state aid measures. A variety of methods have been developed to identify the causal impact of aid and to address the problem of selection bias properly. Recent studies largely apply propensity score matching and strive to identify different types of additionality as well as the relationships between them, acknowledging that behavioural additionality plays a critical role in understanding the long-term impact of public interventions.

Celem niniejszej pracy jest ustalenie, jak kontrola unijna podchodzi do problemu wsparcia państwa na badania, rozwój i innowacje. Zastosowano metody zarówno analizy literaturowej jak badań praktycznych i analizy dokumentacji. Formalistyczne podejście przyjęte w większości przypadków kontroli ex-ante pomocy państwa wymaga dalszych badań na temat rzeczywistych skutków wprowadzonych środków. Zostało opracowanych wiele metod w celu określenia wpływu doraźnej pomocy i rozwiązania problemu stronniczej selekcji. Najnowsze badania stosuje się głównie po to, aby dążyć do identyfikacji różnych typów wsparcia, a także relacji między nimi, uznając, że zasada behawioralnego wsparcia odgrywa kluczową rolę w zrozumieniu wpływu długotrwałej interwencji publicznej.
