"With the proposal for a directive, the commercial use of electronic signatures takes a step forward, but there is still a long way to go. The basic problems of electronic signatures, such as how reliable and flexible the system is, and clarifying how responsibilities relate to one another, call for more development work in the future also.
Many states and organisations over recent years have developed digital signature systems and rules on them. In addition to the EU draft directive, the International Chamber of Commerce and the OECD have made recommendations on this issue. An important recommendation has been made on an organisation to promote global electronic commerce, Global Information Infrastructure.
In my opinion, as we develop a European frame of reference for electronic signatures, the European Union must also constantly work on the international level, so that the legal framework of the system can be strengthened. It would be to the European Union’s benefit to establish an international organisation.
The development of cooperation must not, however, lead to an increase in regulation. Systems of protection must be allowed to develop freely and become as effective as possible with the help of market forces, and they must at the same time ensure that the confidence of consumers in the opportunities presented by electronic signatures remains firm."@en1
