This sounds interesting...

Might as well copy-paste text:
e-banking customers in Finland used their e-banking passwords 56,2 million times to log in to public sector and other non-banking services last year. Up from 47,1m.
Finland is a small country - so it may be useful to multiply into a corresponding EU-potential = 4 billion times.
Does this save tax payers' money? Does it save citizens nerves? Oh yeah.. Is it secure? Naturally - it has to be - otherwise banking would not function. Other countries are followin suite - but it could happen faster.
Why not? Do banks not see this as their responsibility (and modest business case). Do politicians not take their responsibility - making it easy and cost-efficient?

I can think of a big number of things that can be done - in a secure and very userfriendly way (learn once - use everywhere = economy of repetition, economy of reuse, economy of trust - even economy of scale and scope...... all the huge levers in place). Things to do in 3rd party services or from e-bank services directly with single sign-on! :1. signing contracts (also at work - you do use many personal tools anyway...), 2. empowering others, 3. e-wills, 4. voting, 5. sending invitations (using e-invoicing addresses), 6. accepting proposals (mobile press A for paying e-invoice on due date happens in strongly authtenticated space!! etc

We need much more transparency and crime detectors - not less.

Banks have done 3rd party e-id since the 90s - no problem for governments. Federal or not. All the way to municipalities. And of course for similar needs in the private sector. And not only e-id - also signing contracts etc. In private and employee roles.

Social media credentials cannot be used for bank transactions and in public sector services where similar strong e-id is needed.

Bravo - this - the most natural thing - has been a great success story in Finland - and later in other Nordics

For this we need also real time e-Invoicing

When you build ecosystems where you need many participants and the public sector it is easier in a small country - especially if there is a strong standardization tradition (Finland). But if you on your own sell innovative apps domestically for smaller segments it is very difficult to get critical mass - so America is better here.
