IACA continues to address the challenges facing Cash Infrastructure. Through IACA’s various Members’ Discussion Meetings and Round-table Discussions the past year, it is clear, that Cash Visibility throughout the Cash Eco-system is a continued challenge for many central banks and their cash supply chain. Further, it was agreed in the discussions, that Cash Visibility requires COLLABORATION throughout the Cash Eco-system and if Cash Visibility is addressed and advanced, it could bring significant positive impact, both to the efficiency and resiliency of cash—helping to ensure its continued use and viability. So, what is stopping us from advancing Cash Visibility and Collaboration?
IACA has planned a 3-part program to “FOCUS” on Cash Visibility & Collaboration. The program will include the following:
