A central bank pilot involves an experimental phase where a nation’s central bank tests a digital currency or a new financial technology. These trials evaluate the practical viability, technical functionality, and policy implications of innovations like central bank digital currencies. Such initiatives assess potential impacts on monetary policy, financial stability, and payment systems before broader implementation.
