    A digital euro would offer a wide range of

    Key Points: 
      • A digital euro would offer a wide range of
        financial stability benefits, including safeguarding the role of public money and
        strengthening the strategic autonomy and monetary sovereignty of the euro area in
        the digital era.
      • Keywords: CBDC, digital euro, bank intermediation, financial stability risks.
      • A digital euro has the potential to offer a wide range of financial stability
        benefits for the digital era.
      • A digital euro would
        stimulate financial innovation among private sector entities and enhance the
        efficiency and resilience of the financial system by supporting competition and
        diversity within it.3 In addition, a digital euro would strengthen the strategic autonomy
        and monetary sovereignty of the euro area.
      • A digital euro would be designed to minimise risks to the financial system.

        The preparation phase will pave the way for a future decision on whether or not to issue a digital euro.

      • When gauging the implications for the euro area banking sector of introducing a
        digital euro, take-up would be key, as it would determine the level of deposit
        outflows.
      • In the latter case, the
        issuance of a digital euro would not affect banks? balance sheets, since banks would return euro
        banknotes to the Eurosystem in exchange for digital euro.
      • Banknotes and digital euro are two different
        types of central bank liability, so a swap between banknotes and digital euro would only affect the
        composition and not the size of the Eurosystem?s balance sheet.
      • In our analysis, we model only the
        substitution of commercial bank deposits with a possible future digital euro.

        The legislative proposal on a digital euro provides for the inclusion of such safeguards and establishes
        specific criteria for the limits, aiming to contain the use of a digital euro as a store of value.

        To understand the benefits of digital euro safeguards, such as holding limits, it
        is useful to first consider the implications of introducing a CBDC without
        adequate safeguards.
