Garner: "By 2014, major national defaults in Europe will lead to the collapse of more than one-third of European banks."

A consolidation is surely needed - but that it will happen through "defaults" and even "major national defaults" is of course extremely unlikely on EU-level - even on national level. State ownership will grow but it can take longer than 2014 for taxpayers to get out with profit.

Key reasons why we have to demand all governments to take firm action (deadlines for paper and e-mailed PDFs):

1. save tax payers' money

2. push SMEs across service and process digitalization thresholds

3. collect VAT and other taxes due

4. cut CO2 emissions

I tried it. Worked fine. If you still have problems pls send e-mail address.

This gives banks ample time to launch e-invoicing services using the ISO20022 message standard - automating handily the ISO20022 SEPA payments. This also drives SEPA-adoption in a natural way.  Banks should also integrate direct debit into e-invoicing - it makes no sense to not do it - enterprise customers can save so much with one integrated solution.

Dean,

The FB reference is more related to launching netservices - like election aids and new e-commerce solutions meant for global markets.

Thank you Dean. I have a long way to go to reach your reach with the tweets. I agree on the audience - and also have the pleasure of meeting people at conferences based on the posts.

The power of social media is immense. So soon we can phps say - if it does not fly on Facebook first - it will not break through elsewhere...

Thank you Ketharam. I started - some  soon 3 years ago - still all reasons to be pleased.

Thank you John.

Tax payers - wake up!

Thank you James. It has been an epiphany here in the Nordic-Baltic region to see how much can be done for e-government take-up when e-banking codes can be used for log-on. And how much cost is saved. Canada is now starting the second wave.

Kazakhstan issuing deadline for paper invoicing is an important addition on that front.
