Antti Heinonen, former Director of Banknotes at the ECB, and Guillaume Lepecq, founder of the CashEssentials Think Tank, will lead the seminar.
The seminar will address three key questions:
- How can stakeholders contribute to shaping a viable and sustainable cash ecosystem in an increasingly uncertain environment?
- Is cash a public good? Or a basic right? If so, what are the policy implications regarding access and acceptance, resilience, and the funding of the cash cycle?
- What can we learn from the global evolution of cash demand?
In addition, Round Table Conversations will offer the opportunity to debate the burning questions, ranging from declining transactional demand for cash, to the need for a more resilient cash cycle in a multi-crisis environment, or the loss of privacy in a less-cash environment. Participants will be invited to deploy their collective intelligence to assess and discuss some of the key challenges and opportunities facing the future of cash.
