CBDCs Could Support a More Stable Economy — If Banks Take the Lead

Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) have emerged as a significant topic within academia, geopolitics, and the vibrant discussions surrounding the cryptocurrency community. Leaders in various nations, alongside major financial institutions like the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund, largely agree on the potential benefits that CBDCs could bring. However, there is a lack of clarity regarding the specific areas where CBDCs are most likely to offer support and where their implementation might be less appropriate.

For CBDCs to positively impact the global economy, it is crucial for world leaders to understand both their advantages and limitations. CBDCs can enable central bankers to enforce more effective capital controls, design stimulus measures, and enhance other monetary policies as they manage debt issuance to banks at the wholesale level.
