The tectonic plates of the global financial system are shifting, while new geopolitical order challenges countries' political capacity to act. The digital euro holds the promise of enhancing Europe's monetary sovereignty. Yet the Eurozone's ambitions are facing strong competition from a newly emerging alternative: a world of private digital currencies underpinned by U.S. regulation. This session will explore key issues such as digital euro, stable coins and how to strengthen the international role of the euro.
