"The more they look at it the more they are discovering it is a bad idea. That is the truth of it ..."
Wow almost (2) months between posts. Really nothing new reported in the article so I guess we'll see what happens.
It perfectly reflects the number of articles published on FTT around the world (based on Google alerts) which is good and in addition it is summer time.
In fact here was the news for me : "Meanwhile at the end of June, it was reported by Reuters that Germanyâs Deutsche Borse was investigating ways of expanding outside the euro area so that its non-European clients could avoid the FTT. These moves include the firmâs new derivatives clearing house in Singapore, and the application its subsidiary Eurex Zurich has made for a licence from US regulator the CFTC." However, you are right, 2 months is good( Not that I care, I am not in the EU anymore )
Come on then member states, harm both your markets and your tax intake,for a 'better than nothing" face saving exercise of the bureaucrats, well done, well done.
