PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CASA DA
MOEDA DO BRASIL (CMB)
The CMB, the Brazilian Mint, is a state-owned company that
manufactures banknotes and metallic coins. The interaction
between the BCB and the CMB is steady, from negotiations
for the purchase of the Annual Production Program defined
by the BCB to the partnership in the development of new
series of the Real and commemorative coins.
In 2022, the BCB ordered 1,181,280 thousand banknotes
and 990,100 thousand coins. In addition to coins of
common circulation, 40,000 commemorative cupronickel
and 20,000 silver coins were manufactured referring to the
Bicentennial of Independence.
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Money Museum
(Museu de Valores), the CMB launched commemorative
medals at the Brazilian Numismatic Congress. Fifty silver and
300 bronze medals were minted to mark the special date.
RELEASE OF THE BICENTENNIAL COIN
The BCB launched, in June 21, two commemorative coins,
one in silver and the other in cupronickel, alluding to the
200 Years of the Independence of Brazil. The launching of
the coins marks the BCB's contribution to the celebration
of the historic moment that established Brazil as a nation.
Based on the BCB's definitions and specifications, the
CMB developed the graphic designs, in addition to being
responsible for selling the commemorative coins through
the Clube da Moedd's website.
SURVEY ON THE USE OF MONEY
The BCB released the results of the new edition of the
survey "Brazilians and their relationship with money". Held
in late 2021, the survey is an important source of information
for the continuous improvement of the management of
the Brazilian money supply and of the disclosure actions
on the characteristics of the banknotes and coins of the
BRL. Among the most relevant results, the survey indicated
that cash is still the means of payment most frequently used
by the population, despite having lost relevance compared
to the 2018 survey edition.
COLLABORATION WITH THE BANCO DO
BRASIL
Banco do Brasil S.A. is the financial institution that works
together with the BCB in the distribution of cash (banknotes
and coins) throughout the national territory. Banco do Brasil
S.A. has a wide network, thus enabling a wide capillarity.
After receiving cash from the BCB, Banco do Brasil S.A.
conducts withdrawal, deposit, and exchange operations
with financial institutions, and is reimbursed by them for
the costs incurred in these operations and other activities
related to custody, for which it must report to the BCB. Upon
receiving cash from the banking network, the custodian
sorts the bills, returning to circulation those considered
appropriate for use. The cash considered inadequate is sent
to the BCB in due time.
