 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">The Fund seeks <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">long-term</FONT> capital appreciation through investment primarily in
equity and <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">equity-linked</FONT> securities of issuers domiciled in Europe. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">Investments in funds involve risks, including the loss
of principal. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">The shares of most <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">closed-end</FONT> funds, including the Fund, are not continuously offered. Once issued, shares of
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">closed-end</FONT> funds are bought and sold in the open market. Shares of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">closed-end</FONT> funds frequently trade at a discount to net asset value. The price of the Fund&#146;s
shares is determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the Fund. Therefore, the Fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade at, below or above net asset value. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">This Fund is diversified and primarily focuses its investments in equity securities of issuers domiciled in Europe, thereby increasing its vulnerability to developments
in that region. Investing in foreign securities, particularly those of emerging markets, presents certain risks, such as currency fluctuations, political and economic changes, and market risks. Any fund that concentrates in a particular segment of
the market or in a particular geographical region will generally be more volatile than a fund that invests more broadly. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">The European Union (EU), the United States
and other countries have imposed sanctions in response to the Russian military and other actions in recent years. These sanctions have adversely affected Russian individuals, Russian issuers and the Russian economy. Russia, in turn, has imposed
sanctions targeting Western individuals, businesses and products. The various sanctions have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, not only the Russian economy but also the economies of many countries in Europe. The continuation
of current sanctions or the imposition of additional sanctions may materially adversely affect the value of the Fund&#146;s portfolio. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">On January 31, 2020, the
United Kingdom officially withdrew from the European Union (EU) pursuant to a withdrawal agreement, providing for a transition period in which the United Kingdom negotiated and finalized a trade deal with the EU, the EU-UK Trade and Cooperation
Agreement, provisionally applied effective January 1, 2021. As a result, as of January 1, 2021 the United Kingdom is no longer part of the EU customs union and single market, nor is it subject to EU policies and international agreements. The
long-term impact of the United Kingdom&#146;s withdrawal from the EU is still unknown and could have adverse economic and political effects on the United Kingdom, the EU and its member countries, and the global economy, including financial markets
and asset valuations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8.5pt; font-family:ARIAL">War, terrorism, economic uncertainty, trade disputes, public health crises (including the ongoing pandemic spread of the novel coronavirus)
and related geopolitical events could lead to increased market volatility, disruption to U.S. and world economies and markets and may have significant adverse effects on the Fund and its investments. </P>

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:14pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Dear Shareholder, </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">For the <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">six-month</FONT> period ended June&nbsp;30, 2021, the total return of the European Equity Fund, Inc. (the &#147;Fund&#148;) in U.S. dollars (USD) was 7.50% based on net asset value and 9.73% based on market price. During
the same period, the return of the Fund&#146;s benchmark, the MSCI Europe Index, was 11.80%.<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">1</SUP> The Fund&#146;s underperformance during the period was driven by stock selection, in particular by the
Fund&#146;s focus on quality and growth companies in a period where value and small capitalization companies achieved the best returns. For the period in review, the Fund&#146;s discount to net asset value averaged 12.54%, compared with 14.23% for
the same period in 2020. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The period saw overall positive market performance despite some temporary weakness in February and May. Equities were supported by strong
macroeconomic data as the European manufacturing purchasing manager&#146;s index (PMI) reached a three-year high while the German PMI and Ifo Business Climate Index both rose powerfully.<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">2,3</SUP>
Conditions were supported by Europe&#146;s progress on vaccines in the second quarter and the European Central Bank signaling continued accommodative policies. Against this backdrop, the extension of COVID-induced lockdowns in various countries,
mounting inflation expectations and the collapse of the Archegos Capital family office triggered only short-term market consolidations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The Fund&#146;s largest
overweight is to the industrials sector, and holdings in the sector made positive contributions to relative performance. In this vein, package delivery company Deutsche Post AG has seen its results benefit from the boom in e-commerce, while results
for construction products company Cie de Saint-Gobain have been boosted by rising demand for housing. The Fund&#146;s positioning within information technology also contributed modestly, largely due to the Fund&#146;s positions in ASML Holding NV
and Telefonaktiebolaget LM Ericsson. ASML provides technology integral to semiconductor manufacturing and has seen strong demand in the wake of a global computer chip shortage, while Ericsson provides equipment to the telecommunications industry
essential to the implementation of 5G networking. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The materials sector is the second biggest overweight in the Fund, with BHP Group PLC (minerals), Sika AG (specialty
chemicals) and Yara International ASA (fertilizer) all contributing positively. However, these contributions were offset by our underweight to the strong-performing mining segment, so materials positioning had an essentially neutral or slightly
negative impact on relative performance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Positioning with respect to consumer cyclicals was the largest detractor from relative performance as security selection
within and, to a lesser extent, an underweight to the sector weighed on return. In particular, a lack of exposure to the auto sector explains most of the performance shortfall as shares of its biggest representatives posted large gains. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">Security selection within consumer staples was the second largest performance detractor. Most notably, a lack of exposure to select personal care and alcoholic beverage
names within the sector was detrimental to return. The negative contribution from security selection was somewhat offset by the impact of sector allocation as the lagging consumer staples sector was the Fund&#146;s largest underweight in the period.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">In terms of the impact of country exposures, the Fund&#146;s largest underweight was to the U.K., which proved to have a negative impact as a number of large mining
and energy stocks which outperformed in the period are U.K.-listed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10.5pt; font-family:ARIAL"><B>Market Outlook </B></P>

of growth, the resilience of industries and strength of global trade, despite all the talk of supply disruptions, have been positive surprises. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">That said, after the impressive rally in most of the world&#146;s major stock indices we anticipate that the markets will have to overcome some difficult hurdles over
the summer. Government support for households will be reduced significantly, and monetary stimulus is also likely to peak this year. In addition, inflation is likely to crest by the end of 2021, and even if it retreats next year we cannot rule out
the possibility that certain sectors will face rising material and labor costs well beyond then. Tighter regulatory requirements and higher corporate taxes are also already on the horizon, which could put pressure on profit margins in the medium
term. Companies should still benefit from strong sales increases, and stock markets can generally cope well with moderate inflation. However, inflation is a downside risk to equity markets and needs to be closely monitored. We will not be inclined
to further increase our target valuation multiples in this environment. Our forecasts therefore point to only modest upside potential for equities broadly, with returns largely supported by dividends. In this environment, stock selection should be
the key driver of performance. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">At the sector level, certain technology and consumer stocks and individual cyclical

earned or repatriated. Estimated tax liabilities on certain foreign securities are recorded on an accrual basis and are reflected as components of interest income or net change in unrealized gain/loss on investments. Tax liabilities realized as a
result of security sales are reflected as a component of net realized gain/loss on investments. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">At June 30, 2021, the aggregate cost of investments for federal
income tax purposes was $72,005,521. The net unrealized appreciation for all investments based on tax cost was $20,426,403. This consisted of aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments for which there was an excess of value over tax
cost of $22,011,304 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments for which there was an excess of tax cost over value of $1,584,901. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:ARIAL">The Fund has

records dividends and distributions to its shareholders on the <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">ex-dividend</FONT> date. The timing and character of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with United
States federal income tax regulations, which may differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These differences primarily relate to investments in foreign currency denominated investments and certain
securities sold at a loss. As a result, net investment income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such period. Accordingly, the Fund may
periodically make reclassifications among certain of its capital accounts without impacting the NAV of the Fund. </FONT></P>

<TD VALIGN="bottom" STYLE="BORDER-BOTTOM:1px solid #cccccc"> <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:8pt; font-family:ARIAL">The Fund offers shareholders a Voluntary Cash Purchase Program and Dividend Reinvestment Plan
(&#147;Plan&#148;) which provides for optional cash purchases and for the automatic reinvestment of dividends and distributions payable by the Fund in additional Fund shares. Plan participants may invest as little as $100 in any month and may invest
up to $36,000 annually. The Plan allows current shareholders who are not already participants in the Plan and first time investors to enroll in the Plan by making an initial cash deposit of at least $250 with the plan agent. Share purchases are
combined to receive a beneficial brokerage fee. A brochure is available by writing or telephoning the transfer agent:</P> <P STYLE="font-size:2pt; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>
