SUMMARY:Will Central Bank Digital Currencies Become a Reality? A View from the Bundesbank
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The coronavirus pandemic is accelerating the development of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) as it has prompted millions of people to turn to cashless payments. But\, efforts to create CBDCs is nothing new. Central banks have been exploring how CBDCs could become a reality since Facebook’s efforts to launch its own cryptocurrency Libra raised the prospect of a private company competing with traditional currencies. \nJoin the American Council on Germany for a discussion with Burkhard Balz\, Member of the Executive Board of the Deutsche Bundesbank\, about CBDC trends in Europe.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F2016124517477%2FWN_MqKp9RYWTQmgiv5wy1gnHg” css=”.vc_custom_1612451794687{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Burkhard Balz has been a member of the Executive Board of the Deutsche Bundesbank since September 2018.
