This article considers the bank tax proposed by the Dutch government in late 2011. This bank tax is considered along with two anticipated measures, namely amendments to the regulatory capital requirements for Dutch banks, which are expected to be introduced via an EU Regulation and an EU Directive, and amendments to the Dutch deposit guarantee scheme.
