About the Project

The PRIN (Progetti di Ricerca di Interesse Nazionale) is a national research program funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research, supporting projects of significant national interest in advancing scientific knowledge.

Our project investigates the legal, economic and technological challenges of digital currencies and tokenization in the evolving financial landscape, with a focus on regulatory frameworks and monetary policy.

About the Florence Unit

The Florence unit is focusing on the impact of DLT technologies and digital currencies on banking supervision and financial stability. The research explores Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and their interaction with traditional monetary frameworks. This conference represents a milestone in the dissemination of our research findings and the creation of an international dialogue between academia, central banks, and regulatory authorities.
