XXI century utilities – downsizing

Thursday, December 9th, 2010

More than one week later than expected, this second article will start not from the point where the previous one ended, but some of its implications.

Specifically: I referred to the potential side-effects of initiatives such as the enforcement of mobile number portability and SEPA, the not-so-new-but-yet-ill-known first step toward a EU-wide unique financial space extended beyond the corporate world.

A missing piece of the puzzle is the increased need, due to obvious security concerns, to be able to share information that used to be accessible on a national level within our EU- and I enclose the recent announcement of other structural changes to increase the internal and external cohesion.

Of course, including the introduction of the normative and structural changes due to the Lisbon Treaty.

This article is focused on potential short-term changes that could produce significant direct and indirect benefits.
