Today, we unveil the enhanced set of banknotes under the New Generation Currency series. These banknotes are equipped with the latest anti-counterfeiting technology and embedded with tactile marks that will make it easier for the elderly and persons with disabilities to differentiate each denomination.
As you may remember, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas released in circulation the New Generation Currency Banknotes Series in December 2010. As a matter of practice, central banks regularly change the design and security features of currency to protect its integrity every 10 years, on average.
