Europe is keeping its cash friendly and accessible! The European Central Bank has announced plans for new euro banknotes intended to ‘reassure the public cash is here to stay’ and introduce designs that will ‘connect citizens.’
Following a survey to establish citizen preferences by the European Central Bank (ECB), Reuters reports the fresh designs will be based on ‘European culture, birds and rivers’, and will appear towards the end of the decade at the soonest. The cultural theme ‘could depict monuments, works of art, literature, music, scientific discoveries and inventions’ while the nature theme may include ‘rivers crossing borders’ or images of regional birds.
