BRUSSELS, Belgium (AP) - Europe's "patchwork of regulation and taxes" is limiting online auction company eBay Inc.'s growth across the 25-nation European Union, eBay's CEO said Tuesday.
Meg Whitman, CEO of eBay, told reporters the fragmented system of 25 different national taxes made it difficult for users to sell across borders.
"If you're a big company, you can cope with all the regulation," she said before a meeting with EU Taxation Commissioner Laszlo Kovacs. Most eBay users are small businesses.
