Designed to provide unbiased information about the #FutureOfCash, #CashEssentials offers a platform for debate on this growing issue. Inspired by Guillaume Lepecq’s white paper #CashEssentials – Beyond Payments, this website’s original content presents extracts of the document that can be used freely by all as long as the source is cited. In this growing ecosystem of heterogeneous payment methods, cash remains a public good. It is spent by individuals and demand is driven by consumers – it is therefore the public that should have the final word on its evolution. #CashEssentials presents daily news, reports, and blog articles on the future of cash while encouraging readers to engage in the debate through comments on the website or via our social media platform.
