Abstract (Swedish)
This thesis investigates the implementation of the digital euro, focusing on university students' trust and awareness in the Benelux region.

Findings reveal that awareness significantly predicts trust, and higher trust levels correlate with increased likelihood of digital euro usage. The study offers insights for European Central Bank policymakers, emphasising the need for effective communication and trust-building to encourage adoption.... (More)
