Unauthorised Housing Solicitations
We are aware that unauthorised companies are contacting Currency Conference attendees to offer hotel reservations. These companies are not affiliated with the Currency Conference. Please note that the only authorised parties for hotel reservations are Maritz Global Events and the JW Marriott Berlin. Neither will ever solicit reservations by phone, email, or fax. If you are contacted by a third party offering discounted hotel rates, we strongly recommend not using their services. While offers may appear attractive, such companies often require pre-paid, non-refundable bookings with high cancellation or change fees. In some cases, reservations are moved to alternate hotels or do not exist at all, and there is also a risk of credit card fraud. For your protection, we advise booking only through official conference channels and verifying any company independently before providing personal or payment details. Please see the relevant information above.

Executive Roundtable Supply Chain Resilience
Monday, May 24/ 11:00–12:30
A closed-door, government organisations only (Central Banks and State Printworks) roundtable discussion, under Chatham House Rules.
The participants will identify existing or expected currency supply chain related issues – from sourcing raw materials and intermediate goods such as substrates, blanks, inks, foils, etc to sourcing finished banknotes and coins. More importantly, the participants will discuss strategies how to make the supply chain less volatile and subject to disruption, be it due to geopolitical events, demand fluctuations or other factors. CR will produce a paper based on these discussions to be shared with the participants or possibly beyond (subject to agreement of the participants).
