That's kind of the point. The EU could theoretically demand some Linux support from banks. It wouldn't be a popular decision at first, but the consumer protection agency is capable of that, banks are capable of that, and it would help a lot.
I don't think it would happen, it's cheaper for banks to lobby against it than do a bare minimum, lobbying is cheaper than anything, but still, neat idea.
