Introduction

As digital currencies continue to grow in popularity, central banks around the world are exploring the possibility of issuing their own digital currencies.

However, they also pose significant challenges and risks, particularly in terms of their impact on monetary policy, financial stability, and systemic risk.

To help policymakers, central bank officials, and financial sector professionals better understand the potential macroeconomic implications of CBDCs, this training program provides a comprehensive overview of the topic. Through lectures, case studies, simulations, and discussions, participants will gain a deep understanding of the benefits, drawbacks, and risks associated with CBDCs and their impact on the broader economy.
