This includes considerations for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), stablecoins, and other forms of electronic money. Such policies aim to manage monetary stability, financial inclusion, and consumer protection in an increasingly digital economic landscape. They address both the opportunities and potential risks presented by novel forms of currency.
