Many products are expensive in Belgium, but a current account is not one of them, the costs are a lot lower in Belgium in comparison to other European countries, so says the European Commission.
Belgians pay about 58 euro a year, while the cost in France is 154 euro for a similar bank account, and 253 euro in Italy. The European Commission interrogated 224 banks to find this out, including five of the most important financial institutions in Belgium: KBC, Fortis, CBC, ING and Dexia. So, for Belgians, the cost price isn’t the problem , but unfortunately the rates used by the Belgian banks are not transparent at all and the consumers are badly informed, which often leads to the wrong and more expensive choice of account.
