the Global Organization for
Central banking Standards

Core Initiatives (Happening Now)

CBDC Standards is a dedicated initiative promoting best practices in Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) and financial innovation. As the leading entry point for CBDC insights, we provide a gateway to authoritative central banking standards.

CBDC Standards is now part of the Central Banking Standards Organization (CBSO), ensuring that all in-depth content, regulatory frameworks, and global best practices are consolidated in one trusted location.

Our Mission

CBDC Standards is a dedicated initiative under the CBSO, focused on advancing Central Banking 4.0 and CBDC development worldwide. Recognizing the growing interest in regulated stablecoins, we aim to integrate them into the evolving financial system responsibly, mitigating potential systemic risks. Our mission is to establish and uphold resilient, interoperable standards that empower central banks and financial institutions to seamlessly integrate CBDCs and stablecoins into the digital economy and the global financial system, fostering trust, innovation, and stability for a better world.​

Our organization is committed to rigorous research, documentation, and defining emerging Central Banking 4.0 standards to create a robust foundation for sustainable CBDC and stablecoin frameworks.
