Guy Verhofstadt

As a strong advocate for European integration, I believe introducing an EU-wide incorporation form would be a significant step forward. It would reduce bureaucratic hurdles and make it easier for entrepreneurs to establish and expand their businesses across the entire EU, fostering economic growth and unity.

I believe that EU taxes on stock options should indeed be applied when the stock is sold. This approach can ensure a fairer tax system and prevent potential loopholes that allow for tax avoidance. By taxing at the point of sale, we can better capture the true financial benefits reaped by individuals.

As a strong proponent of a more integrated and effective European Union, I believe reducing regulation could undermine the EU's ability to tackle cross-border issues like climate change, security, and digital transformation. Regulations ensure a level playing field and protect our citizens. Instead of reducing them, we should focus on smarter, more efficient regulations that address current and future challenges.
