With a decrease in the use of cash, the objectives pursued by the Central Banks with an electronic and universally accessible form of money are to anticipate the disappearance of cash, create an efficient and cheap means of payment, and strengthen regulatory controls.

Initialement prévue le 14 septembre dernier, l’entrée en vigueur de l’obligation « d’authentification forte » a finalement été repoussée de 36 mois en France.
