Market research on possible technical solutions for a digital euro

13 January 2023

On 6 February – answers to the questions received about this market research are published and annex 2 updated.

In the context of the investigation phase of the digital euro project, the European Central Bank (ECB) is inviting market participants to take part in market research to get an overview of options for the technical design of possible digital euro components and services.

This will provide important input for an implementation plan, which will be a key part of the final report due in autumn 2023 at the conclusion of the investigation phase. The report will allow the ECB Governing Council to make a well-informed decision on whether to launch a realisation phase. The final decision on the issuance of a digital euro would, however, only be taken later.

Participation in the market research is voluntary and will not have any impact on eligibility for future procurement procedures related to a digital euro or any other topic. Nor will it imply any pre-selection for a potential subsequent tender.

For more detailed information, please refer to the digital euro market research main document below.
