By implication, the GNI-based resource ensures that the budget is always balanced ex ante. The GNI call rate is determined by the additional revenue needed to finance the budgeted expenditure not covered by the other resources (VAT-based resource, traditional own resources and other revenue). Thus a call rate is applied to the GNI of each of the Member States. The rate to be applied to the Member States’ GNI for financial year 2021 is 0,8551 %.
