The #digitaleuro is NOT just a payment system! When MEP Navarrete in ECON highlighted the digital euro’s goal is only 'payment sovereignty,' a crucial point was missed. The digital euro is PUBLIC money, a public good private firms can't issue. 👇

🎃 The #digitaleuro draft report is a real #Halloween trick. It swaps a public, inclusive euro for the ghost of private digital money - wanted by banks, for banks. Europe’s money should serve the people, not corporate ambitions of a few big banks. www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/docume...

1/ #Stablecoins are the same as the #DigitalEuro? How do they differ from #CBDC? And above all, are they really as stable as they claim to be? We explained all of this easy for you, let’s unfold it a bit more here 🧵👇

🔜 Today at @sciencespo.bsky.social's Climate & Nature Week, our director Aurélie Maréchal and advocacy officer Philippe Ramos share insights on how monetary policy can power the transition to greener, better buildings 🌱 More info here 👇

The #EU Commission's 2026 work programme puts “independence” and “competitiveness” centre stage - but at what cost? Cutting red tape is good. Cutting #climate ambition is not. Our take on the Commission’s new agenda 👇 positivemoney.org/eu/update/wh...

ECB President Lagarde says renewables are Europe’s best path to secure, sustainable and affordable energy. 🌍 She’s right - but the @ecb.europa.eu must walk its talk and use its tools to steer finance toward that goal.

🌍 Can monetary policy drive the ecological transition? Join our panel with @banquedefrance-off.bsky.social, @agirpourleclimat.bsky.social at @sciencespo.bsky.social Paris Climate Week (Oct 27) 🏗️ positivemoney.org/eu/update/bu... #Climate #GreenFinance #Sciencespo #energy

The ECB-Eurogroup deal on digital € caps is on who decides the limits, but not yet what the limits are. 🤔 Risk of serving banks over people? The digital € could be a PUBLIC payment system for all. Parliament still has a say, let's make sure it's for citizens! uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/eu-mini...

EU failed to agree on binding 2035 #climate targets ahead of UN summit, but climate reality won't wait for political consensus. Clean tech isn't just green necessity, but could be a competitive advantage and deflationary force for the long term. 🌍⚡️

We kept our key interest rates unchanged. We did this because inflation is set to stabilise at around our 2% target. Read today’s monetary policy decisions www.ecb.europa.eu/press/pr/dat...

💬 “Inclusion must be more than a principle - it must translate into practical steps.” At the European Parliament, @ecb.europa.eu's Cipollone said the #DigitalEuro must work for everyone - with adaptive features, a dedicated app & local support so no one is left behind. 👇

🚨 If Visa or Mastercard went down, could you pay for basics? That’s why we need a #DigitalEuro alongside cash: ✅ Public money, backed by the @ecb.europa.eu ✅ Works offline & protects privacy ✅ Less dependence on banks & foreign giants positivemoney.org/eu/update/di...

🔴 Headlines scream: Trump and #Tariffs. With 30% US tariffs looming and threats of escalation, our Senior Policy Manager spoke on @euronews.com about the cost of Trump’s unpredictability - and why the #EU must not feed his confrontational logic. 🎥 Watch ⬇️

This week in the EU Parliament's ECON committee, MEP @eeroheinaluoma.bsky.social (S&D) rightly stressed that sustainability risks - like climate & nature risks - must be central to financial stability. 🌍 We fully support this. Ignoring these risks = ignoring systemic threats to the EU economy. 👇 🎥

The @ecb.europa.eu updated its strategy, but it reads more like self-praise than serious review. 🌍No concrete tools to address climate shocks & impact on price stability ⚠️No serious look at how rate hikes worsen inequality Our @jordischroeder.bsky.social explains: positivemoney.org/eu/update/ho...

🚫 No, the #digitaleuro won't replace cash or become "programmable money." Our director Aurélie Marechal spoke to @rtbf.be to clear up the myths. It’s about guaranteeing access to public money in a digital age. Read more (FR)👇 www.rtbf.be/article/l-eu...

🏦 This week, the @ecb.europa.eu is hosting its #CentralBankingForum in Sintra - today, it's announcing the conclusions of the strategy assessment. But while they talk about economic stability, we’re asking a simple question: How can there be financial stability on a planet in crisis? 👇🧵

🆕🇪🇺 Brussels is betting big on capital markets – but it’s missing the point. Ahead of tomorrow’s crucial @EP_Economics vote on #CapitalMarketsUnion, we explain why relying on private finance alone won’t deliver the green & just transition we need.⤵️ positivemoney.org/eu/update/ca...

We cut our key interest rates by 0.25 percentage points. Inflation is currently around our 2% target. Read today’s monetary policy decisions www.ecb.europa.eu/press/pr/dat...

🌍This #WorldEnvironmentDay2025 is a reminder: We only have one planet, and it’s in crisis. Protecting it means changing the system at its core: the #economy. From where money flows to who it serves, we must rewire the economy for #climate justice & a liveable future for all.

📉 Euro area #inflation has fallen below 2%, undercutting @ecb.europa.eu projections. With inflation now below the #ECB target, this strengthens the case for a rate cut at Thursday’s ECB Governing Council meeting. More via the @financialtimes.com 👉🏻 www.ft.com/content/3dbb...

Yes, #CapitalMarkets may help foster innovation. But as MEP Fabio De Masi says, “we should not fool ourselves.” 🔑 Only #PublicInvestments can unlock #SustainableCompetitiveness in the EU & ensure a fair, resilient transition.
