Changes to the funding models for the next four-year period (2025-2028) has taken effect from the beginning of 2025. The 2025 funding data is calculated from the data in use in June 2024. Since funding is affected by retrospectively the previous three years, the average is calculated from the publication data for 2021-2023.

All publication types are subject to the multipliers of the new funding model. A coefficient of 0.4 is set for publication categories E (Publications for the general public), F (Public artistic and artistic activities) and I (Audiovisual publications and ICT applications) and a coefficient of 1 is set for all other publication types A to D.

Openly available publications in publication categories A to E are further weighted by a factor of 1.2. (OKM.)
