Abstract

[fre] Nous ne disposions pas encore des outils de réflexion et des données nous permettant de « penser » de façon européenne en matière d’épargne. Plus précisément, en matière de fiscalité de l’épargne, plus d’une décennie après les premiers efforts européens d’harmonisation cette situation d’ignorance est d’autant plus grave que la Commission, le Conseil et le Parlement européens risquent d’adopter dès 2002 une directive sur l’imposition de l’épargne. C’est donc peu dire que le travail pionnier réalisé à la demande de l’Observatoire de l’Épargne Européenne (OEE) par Thierry Laurent et Yannick L’Horty est le bienvenu. Bien sûr, il s’agit d’une première tentative, dont les auteurs n’ont peut-être pas suffisamment souligné les limites et le caractère « académique », mais elle est extrêmement utile, et ouvre la voie à d’indispensables travaux ultérieurs.. Classification JEL : E21, E62, H20, H30, H87 [eng] Brief Comments on the Article « Taxation of Savings in Europe » . We still do not possess the means for deliberations and the data enabling us to « think » in a European way on savings. On the subject of taxation of savings, more than a decade after the first European harmonisation efforts, the state of ignorance is all the more serious since the Commission, the Council and the European Parliament might adopt from 2002 onwards a directive on savings taxation. Therefore the least one can say is that the pioneer work carried out at the request of the European Savings Institute (Observatoire de l’Épargne Européenne) by Thierry Laurent and Yannick L’Horty is welcome. Certainly, it is a first attempt ; perhaps the authors have not sufficiently emphasised its very real limits and « academic » character, but it is extremely useful and opens the way for further indispensable work. .
