Summary/Abstract: The article examines the key issues in the process of designing and early implementation of the European Union cohesion policy 2014-2020 with the use of nongrant instruments and which will influence the evaluation of their efficiency. First cause of such a situation is of a conceptual nature and it stems from the departure from a principle of partnership and solidarity in favour of the monitoring and control rules. Secondly, serious time lags are evidenced by the analysis of the completion dates of the selected milestones in relation to 2007-2013 and 2014-2020 period through the Pomorskie region case. Finally, there is a significant increase of the number of the legal regulations, as well as a lack of the coherence of the implemented mechanisms. As a result of all that, financial instruments’ potencial will not be utilised in full.
