"It is essential to have a bank account to receive income or benefits, pay bills or taxes, purchase goods and services, withdraw cash, and print account statements. One in 10 European citizens does not have access to banking services: the homeless, people on very low incomes, students, expatriate workers … All these individuals should have the right to have access to basic banking services. By supporting this resolution, I call on the Commission to submit legislation by 2013 with a view to putting an end to this financial exclusion that I find unacceptable. The text stipulates that payment account providers must not deny these on the grounds of low income, employment situation, credit history or level of indebtedness. Furthermore, the text makes it clear that the basic banking account should always be less expensive than any other product offered by a provider, and that it should not be made conditional on the purchase of other products or services. I now eagerly await the Commission’s proposal."@en1
