"There is consensus about the notion that the opportunities offered by the European single market are not tapped to their full potential. I welcome that this consensus is being converted into practical decisions. Tools are needed to leverage the single market fully, and SEPA is one such tool. The free movement of labour and capital and the need to provide practical help to European SMEs so that they can enjoy the benefits of the single market will only happen in reality if the European banking system, which is currently fragmented due to Member States’ borders, also becomes a system that operates according to harmonised rules. The possibility of using a single bank account and single banking services provider across the EU is beneficial not only to ordinary citizens and companies, but especially to SMEs as well.
The new SEPA regulations are particularly important as they will help strengthen the internal market in many areas, such as financial services and
commerce. Today’s overwhelming vote during the European Parliament plenary means more than a vote in favour of SEPA: it is a vote of confidence in the euro."@en1
