And EU's Net Contributors Are...

European Union budget.

What's interesting to note, Germany, France, Italy, Holland, Austria, Finland, Denmark and Sweden are net contributors to the EU. In the case of the first four countries, it's not surprising since they are founding members. The other two original members - Belgium and Luxembourg - are net recepients.

As for the UK (also a net contributor) it receives what is called the UK rebate.

Essentially, eight countries (not including Cyprus) carry the "net" load.
