Collateral

How is the collateral invested?

All EUROe tokens issued and outstanding are backed by at least an equivalent value of Euro-denominated assets subject to prudential supervision and reserve management policies that are designed to meet or exceed demands for EUROe in circulation. At any time, EUROe reserves may be composed of:

  1. 1) Fiat Euro deposits at certified European depositary institutions; and
  2. 2) Secure and low-risk debt securities that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and have a maturity less than one year from purchase.

To ensure sufficient liquidity in case of a significant outflow of funds, we maintain at least 40% of the total reserve in fiat deposits at all times and actively manage the duration of the debt portfolio to ensure quick access to additional liquidity when necessary.

For more information, please see the Transparency and Regulation -page.
