The euro: a tale of two decades

What was it like when the euro was launched in 1999? Where will the euro be in another 20 years? Is there a link between support for the euro and trust in the ECB?

The views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank. Published on 28 November 2019 and recorded on 5 September, 23 October and 25 October 2019.
