Union parliamentary group asks about cash infrastructure

Short news from the Bundestag

Berlin: The economic experts of the Union parliamentary group are asking the federal government about the state of the cash infrastructure in Germany.

Cash is still an important means of payment for many people in Germany. Especially in rural areas, many shops and businesses rely on cash payments. However, the number of ATMs and bank branches has been declining for years.

This is causing problems for people who want to withdraw cash. The Union parliamentary group is therefore asking the federal government about the status of the cash infrastructure in Germany. The group wants to know how many ATMs and bank branches there are in Germany and how their distribution is across the country.

In addition, the group is asking about the plans of the federal government to secure the cash supply in the future. This includes the question of whether the government plans to introduce a legal right to cash.

Background:

  • In recent years, the number of ATMs and bank branches in Germany has declined significantly.
  • This is due to the increasing use of digital payment methods.
  • However, cash is still an important payment method for many people in Germany, especially in rural areas.
  • The Union parliamentary group is therefore concerned about the future of the cash supply in Germany.
