Cash Covenant

The Cash Covenant was drawn up in 2022. The agreements in this covenant are intended to ensure that cash continues to function properly as a means of payment at the counter, even now that electronic payments are becoming increasingly common. The Minister of Finance, Sigrid Kaag, presented the covenant to the House of Representatives on April 8, 2022.
