Parties want to slap a bank levy

Special taxes on the banking sector, such a bank levy, have not been ruled out by any of the relevant parties except SaS and Demokrati. After the general election, banks could thus pay hundreds of millions extra a year to the state budget. Some parties want to force banks to cut mortgages rates, at least for vulnerable clients. Analysts point out that the potential bank levy will be paid by customers in fees and interest rates.
