Plafonnement des frais bancaires lors de la clôture des comptes des défunts

Stage committeeUpdated 7d ago

This is a French bill, tabled as a proposition de loi ordinaire in the National Assembly during the 15th legislature, that would limit the fees banks can charge when they close the accounts of people who have died. Estates often face these charges while families are already handling the costs of bereavement and settling the deceased person's affairs. Based on the title alone, the bill aims to set a ceiling on those fees. The bill would mainly affect heirs and families settling a deceased relative's estate, as well as banks and other financial institutions that hold accounts for private individuals in France. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text, so the exact scope of the cap and its details should be checked in the bill itself.
