    Implementation of regional policy has a long tradition in the European economic space. Since the beginning of European integration in the mid-20th century, a common regional policy based on cohesion, solidarity, and redistribution began to take shape. This paper is focused on the examination of the development of regional disparities in EU27 (27 European Union member states). This phenomenon is characterized by its ‘inertial’ nature, despite the implementation of a relatively generous system of instruments, particularly financial ones, in less developed countries and regions. However, it cannot be unequivocally proven that this is caused by inefficient, inappropriate, or misdirected redistribution within the EU27. The neoclassical concept of β-convergence and σ-convergence enables the identification of the RD’s (Regional Disparities) tendency within more than 20 years. To prove the results as accurately as possible and compare the development of interregional disparities, the analysis was conducted on the crucial macroeconomic indicator “GDP” (Gross Domestic Product) expressed in PPP (Purchasing Power Parity), not only at the level of EU (European Union) member states, but also at the regional levels. The results of this research reveal that despite the long-term implementation of the common cohesion policy there is a continuous deepening of interregional disparities at all examined NUTS (Nomenclature of territorial units for statistics) levels.

    Evaluation of state support, its fairness and eligibility of criteria are quite common topics frequently investigated and discussed. Slovakia and similar after-transition countries use more or less direct aid to businesses in order to attract the attention of foreign investors or to support domestic ones. Following study focuses on effects of such aid in Slovakia, uses median values of financial indicators for description of the sample of supported businesses, indexes for analysis of dynamics in results and sources and Pearson’s correlation coefficients for expressing common relations between the size of aid and generated effects. Analysis revealed that companies benefiting from aid experienced initial growth in assets, sales, and profitability but these effects later faded. The correlation between the size of aid and financial ratios was rather insignificant, only in the case of sales, share of personnel cost and depreciation on added value confirmed positive and statistically significant correlation. Regional distribution of aid proved that the least developed regions received significantly less financial contribution, and incentives are not fully motivational in order to transfer investments to such regions.
