Agnès Le Brun  (PPE ),

I voted for this report which aims to regulate cross-border credit transfers and direct debits in euros within the EU under the one scheme. The establishment of a European payments market has many advantages including enhancing competition but also significantly lowering the cost of cross-border banking transactions made by citizens and companies in the European Union. According to an impact assessment, this measure could generate between EUR 100 billion and EUR 300 billion in savings over six years.
