Czech National Bank
1 articleThe Czech National Bank is the Czech Republic's central bank and the issuer of Czech-koruna banknotes and coins. It conducts monetary policy, manages reserves, supervises much of the financial sector and oversees payment and settlement arrangements. The Czech Republic is an EU member outside the euro area, so the bank retains national authority over CZK. The institution should be distinguished from the koruna currency and from the historical Czechoslovak monetary system.
