It is essential for individuals and businesses, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, to be able to make credit transfers rapidly, reliably and cheaply from one part of the Community to another The special of the author analysisis paid to the implementation of the Directive on cross-border transfers at national level with regard to both legal transposable into domestic law and practical application by the banking sectors in the Member States.
