      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.
        • 2

          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.
        • 8

          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
