€m / EURm (millones de euros, en el Reino Unido)


Explanation:
En reportes financieros del Reino Unido se estila así (trabajo en la banca de inversión):

"€m", "EURm" - millones de euros
"€000's", "EUR000's" - miles de euros
"€bn", "EURbn" - billones de euros

https://www.e-bookbuilding.com/public/documents/eMTN eBB Q3-...

"Volume (€m eqv. at Issue)" "Average Transaction Size (€m)"- pág. 3 y siguientes.

http://www.euro.gov.uk/toolkit_03.asp

"You may prefer to use EUR to signify euro amounts rather than the euro symbol (€) since it is not always recognised by some computers or printers."

Espero te sirva. ¡Saludos! ;-)
