New EU regulation that all banks who support bank transfers also have to offer real-time bank transfers at the same cost. Pessimist in me thinks that means the cost of regular transfers will raise slightly. No more waiting 3 business days to move my money from one bank to another.
EU bank transfers are free but they take a day but you also have the option to make it instantly, sometimes paying a small fee like 1€ or so. I have never had to pay, though.

It will make some things a bit more convenient, but why is it particularly exciting?
