Description
Summary:Adequate cash distribution is one the Bank of Canada’s core interests. Canadians’ ability to access cash influences the Bank’s thinking on issuing a central bank digital currency. We provide a perspective on these issues by exploring access of First Nations reserves to cash. : La distribution adéquate des billets de banque est l’un des grands sujets d’intérêt de la Banque du Canada.

Nous apportons un point de vue sur ces questions en analysant l’accès à l’argent comptant des résidents de réserves autochtones.
