The euro is key to our European unity. A digital euro, existing alongside cash, would future-proof our currency. It would be safe, easy to use and free of charge.
While the decision whether to issue a digital euro will be taken later, we’re now launching the preparation phase.
This week, I’m at the Annual Meetings of @the_imf and @worldbank in Marrakesh, Morocco.
These meetings are an opportunity for cooperation at the international level, and I look forward to productive discussions on global economic developments.

Two million of these coins will shortly enter circulation.
