EU digital single market
A true EU-wide digital single market will offer opportunities to businesses and consumers. Businesses will be able to achieve scale and have access to better information and lower transaction costs. Consumers will be able to benefit from higher number of offers at lower prices. Removing remaining barriers to the digital single market can add up to € 415 billion to European GDP.
In order to build a true digital single market, policy-makers must address fragmentation of consumers and VAT rules at EU level, ensuring harmonised and consistent rules on data protection throughout Europe.
