Shipments Of Euro Banknotes Statistics - BNT

Statistics on cross-border shipments of euro banknotes are compiled by the European Central Bank (ECB) on a monthly basis as set out in Guideline ECB/2011/23 on the statistical reporting requirements of the European Central Bank in the field of external statistics. These statistics cover shipments of euro banknotes between national central banks (NCBs) and other monetary financial institutions (MFIs) residents in the euro area and any legal person outside the euro area. Such statistics are needed to facilitate decision-making in the area of euro banknote issuance with respect to the planning of banknote production, the management of stocks and the coordination of the issuance and transfers of euro banknotes by national central banks and the ECB. Euro banknote shipment statistics contribute to the assessment of monetary and foreign exchange developments and are needed to assess the role of the euro as an investment currency outside the euro area.
