Spanish term or phrase: concursos y convocatorias a la financiación exclusiva de proyectos sociales
Tanto en los ámbitos empresariales como en los sectores culturales, el excesivo apoyo financiero de las instituciones públicas no sólo pone en duda el éxito de algunos proyectos sino que mina la capacidad de emprendizaje vasco y la posibilidad de que se enriquezca el dinamismo empresarial de la zona. Desde el punto de vista financiero, también demuestra que existe una falta de confianza de los bancos y entidades financieras en el apoyo a estas ideas si no es a través de concursos y //convocatorias a la financiación exclusiva de proyectos sociales o culturales//.

The general context here is a critique of the overwhelming dependence of cultural institutions in the Basque Country on public financing.

All considered suggestions appreciated. :)

...contests and submissions for the exclusive financing of social and cultural projects.


Explanation:
I understand this to mean that if the banks and financial institutions are not solely involved from the very beginning they are unlikely to support social and cultural initiatives, thus leaving the entire burden to the state.
