24/07/2013
In order to adapt EU payments market to the opportunities of the single market and to support the growth of the EU economy, the European Commission adopted today a package including a new payment Services Directive (“PSD2”) and a proposal for regulation of interchange fees for card-based payment transactions. “Today, the payment market in the EU is fragmented and expensive (...) These are costs our economy cannot afford. Our proposal will promote the digital single market by making internet payments cheaper and safer, both for retailers and consumers” Commissioner Barnier said.
