Euro cash in circulation is continuously increasing even outside Euro Zone and reflecting a rapid growth compared to GDP. Euro has a great significance in international market after USD and is rapidly gaining more importance. This trend is pressurizing European Central Bank to maximize production. Security printing market is already established in Western Europe while in Eastern Europe it is slowly gaining popularity. In terms of future prospects, security printing in Eastern Europe has a great potential due to the availability of low cost labor, developing economy, and growing investor’s interest in setting up their printing units in the region. marketing research report

In 2010, demand for banknotes to be produced was low comparative to the previous year. There was a fall in number of EUR 20 and EUR 50 notes produced in 2010 comparative to previous year.
