I agree, but I saw it claimed EBCDIC doesn't cover diacritic characters. That's not true.
If ISO8859-1 covers the exact same set that CP1047 does and that doesn't meet GDPR's requirements, that implies ISO8859-1 doesn't either and a unicode based character encoding is a necessity for GDPR compliance.
Then again, unicode doesn't cover the late artist formerly known as Prince's written name either.
All things considered, IBM should work with that Dutch bank to move their system over to UTF-16. It's the natural progression of such things.
