Recital 24 a (new)
(24a) The imposition of a tax on financial transactions would significantly reduce the liquidity of financial instruments subject to the tax and thereby increase the cost of funding for companies, pension funds, sovereigns and other economic agents. For a number of Member States currently experiencing difficulties in their financing of public activities and servicing their sovereign debt, the tax on financial transactions would be even more cumbersome.
