". − The lack of confidence on the financial markets is unfortunately growing and globally banks are also lending less and less. Very few financial institutions are actually offering cross-border consumer credit. However, politicians cannot be let off the hook entirely, as differences in confidence in the EU institutions constitute an important criterion for cross-border banking activities within the euro area. The 2011 review by the Commission of 562 consumer credit websites that is mentioned in the report also provides food for thought. The outcome of this review was as follows: on 46 % of the websites checked mandatory information was lacking in the advertising material, on 43 % clear information concerning the overall costs, the duration of the agreement and certain credit-related costs was lacking, and on 20 % the presentation of the costs was misleading. In the current implementation phase the national authorities are contacting the firms concerned and calling on them to remedy the shortcomings identified. As there are still many unclear points to be clarified and the share of cross-border consumer credit agreements is dwindling to almost negligible, I abstained from voting."@en1
