Professional cash handling
Banknote recycling framework
The possibility of re-issuing euro banknotes enables banks and other professional cash handlers to supply the currency more effectively and more cost-efficiently. To ensure the integrity of the banknotes, the ECB has established a “Framework for the detection of counterfeits and fitness sorting by credit institutions and other professional cash handlers” (also known as the “banknote recycling framework”).
