Top Impacting Factors

Implementation of Central Bank Policies for clean Banknotes

The implementation and strict supervision of central bank policies for clean banknotes are considered key factors for driving growth in the banknote printing machine market. Globally, central banks ensure that banknotes in circulation are clean and of high quality in the economy, hereby undertaking the clean banknote policy. The clean banknote policies enunciated consequently by the banks involve a range of diverse currency management activities geared toward the efficient circulation of premium quality banknotes and withdrawal of unfit/soiled banknotes. Though, certain soiled and mutilated notes remain to exist on account of the negligence and careless approach of several intermediaries such as deposit money banks, microfinance banks, merchant banks, cash processing companies, bank customers, market associations, and government agencies, and the general public. Thus, various central banks have implemented policies and are undertaking measures to prevent currency inflow that is unfit for circulation.

For instance, In India, the RBI has taken the initiative of the Clean Note Policy to keep the banknotes clean and usable in circulation in the economy. Similarly, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), as part of its statutory obligations, introduced a Clean Banknote Policy to provide an adequate supply of clean banknotes to facilitate seamless payment and transaction settlement by the general public, banks, and governments. This is expected to strengthen the need for reprinting banknotes and currencies time to replace the discarded banknotes, which eventually contributes to the growth of the market.

Surge in Adoption of Durable Solutions for Printing Currency

Rise in the adoption of durable printing solutions for the production of banknotes to improve efficiency in processing and effectiveness of security features is acting as another major factor supporting the market growth. Central banks and other currency printing authorities are transitioning toward the use of solutions with sophisticated durability for printing currencies. A few notable solutions include hybrid substrates, pure polymer substrates, paper/polymer composites, and superior varnishes and coatings instead of paper notes. In response, the durable solutions or substrate has increased the lifecycle of banknotes; making them more tear-resistant, water resistant, and more impervious to contamination owing to folding, soiling, and microorganisms.

For instance, in February 2019, De La Rue, in cooperation with Hydro Industries Ltd., introduced a technical solution to reduce the environmental impact of banknote printing by eliminating waste and conserving clean water. With a dedicated sustainability policy, De La Rue recognizes the importance of environmental conservation. Similarly, Giesecke+Devrient (G+D) developed a “Green Banknote” in May 2022, which acts as a blueprint for using ecological, resource-saving material for banknotes. Coupled with sustainable and state-of-the-art security features, it makes a decisive contribution to a durable and efficient cash cycle. Therefore, the banknote industry is determined to act on its responsibilities for the environment-friendly and sustainable development of the economy, which paved the way for higher banknote production.

Furthermore, banknotes printed with polymer substrates cannot be forged easily as they are generally equipped with high-security features like a see-through window, serialized numbers, and a quill. This transition toward enhanced substrates is anticipated to boost banknote printing, which is projected to augment the global market growth.
