2. Banknote is a promissory note, issued by a bank, which is payable to the bearer on demand. It is
also known as a ‘bill’ or a ‘note’. According to the existing records, the paper money was first used
way back in 7th Century in China. However, the first fully printed banknote appeared in 1853. The
banknotes are issued by the Central Bank of the respective countries. In addition to this, the
Central Bank is also responsible for the destruction of the unfit banknotes for circulation.
Traditionally, cotton paper was used in manufacturing of the banknotes. However, due to high
destruction rate of cotton banknotes, polyester substrates are now used in manufacturing of
banknotes called polymer banknotes. The banknote issuing authorities are focused to provide high
standards of quality and security, apart from ensuring adequate public confidence in the currency.
The global banknote issuance is on a continual rise and the same is expected to grow further in the
future.
In today’s business arena, the growth of trade and commerce across all geographic nations can be
attributed to the introduction of banknote. In the international market, the US dollar and Euro have
a great significance. In recent past, a constant rise in the circulation of the banknotes has been
encountered in major economies across the globe. Thus, a constant pressure is built on the
banknote manufacturing agencies to maximize their production of banknotes.
