2- French Parliament adopts Tobin tax amendment
The text of the amendment adopted is particularly interesting
for the evaluation undertaken by the administrative services of
the National
Assembly. Thus, at a rate of 0.1% (maximum hypothesis), taking
into account the current volume of monetary transactions at the
Paris stock
exchange, the return would be 50m Euros per day, or 12.5 billion
Euros per year if the volume of transactions remained the same.
