The article is devoted to identifying the peculiarities of the central bank digital currency (CBDC), explaining their impact on the monetary policy of the state, and identifying the prospects for the transformation of domestic banking legislation in connection with the implementation of the CBDC. It is noted that the scope of competence of the Central Bank and the legal basis for the issuance of the CBDC will depend on the economic and legal features of the digital currency, the degree of its impact on the monetary policy, the financial stability of the country’s economy and so on. In the process of forming the appropriate legal field and defining the conceptual apparatus in the sphere of emission and circulation of the CBDC, the peculiarities of the use of the latter in economic transactions and the specific functions not inherent in ordinary means of payment should be taken. СBDC initiatives will help: 1) progressively narrow the banking system at the level of the Central Banks (such as the Chicago Plan) by allowing individuals and businesses to deposit directly into the accounts of the Central Banks; 2) increasing confidence of economic entities and individuals in the financial system; 3) strengthening the financial stability of the economy (both domestically and globally). Granting business entities or individuals the right to store digital money directly with the Central Bank can give rise to two main directions of influence on monetary policy: first, to strengthen its transmission mechanism; secondly, lead to banks being disrupted. This may lead to some legal issues regarding (1) the NBU’s area of competence; (2) the constitutional foundations of the legal economic order (Article 5 of the ECU). In particular, it cannot be ruled out that centralization of the production, servicing, and management of the СBDC turnover may violate the principles of competition in business activities, prevent abuse of monopoly position in the market, etc. Keywords: monetary policy, central bank digital currency, financial stability, competence, legal framework, economic operations, issue.

We use robust control to study how a central bank in an economy with imperfect interest rate pass-through conducts monetary policy if it fears that its model could be misspecified. We find that, first, whether robust optimal monetary policy under commitment responds more cautiously or more aggressively depends crucially on the source of shock. Imperfect pass-through amplifies the robust policy. Second, if the central bank is concerned about uncertainty, it dampens volatility in the inflation rate preemptively but accepts higher volatility in the output gap and loan rate. However, for highly sticky loan rates, insurance against model misspecification becomes particularly pricy. Third, if the central bank fears uncertainty only in the IS equation or the loan rate equation, the robust policy shifts its concern for stabilization away from inflation.

Currently, the only central bank digital currencies (CBDC) in the world is Venezuela’s currency—Petro. Nowadays, the IMF, BIS, and major countries have conducted a lot of research on CBDC. It’s an urgent issue for the central bank to issue CBDC, determine and formulate the circulation of CBDC and the issuance speed, and supervise it. Therefore, establishing ARMA and VARs by sorting out literature, the paper uses the characteristics of CBDC--cash, and similarities with third-party payment in terms of payment to determine the circulation of CDBC by third-party payment users and currency in circulation. The model calculates and predicts the speed of circulation of digital currency. The issuance of CBDC will accelerate the circulation of money. In this regard, we will explore the impact of money supply on monetary policy and make relevant recommendations.

It is known that the digital currency is not supported by any official entity and is used by the Internet only within the scope of institutions, companies and individuals that prefer to deal with them, and can be exchanged in paper currencies such as dollars, euros and others .The purpose of this research is to explain the impact of digital currencies in monetary policy, beginning with the concept of digital currency and its origin and types, on the one hand, and then explain the monetary policy and its goals and objectives used to achieve economic balance in any country on the other hand , The research adopted a descriptive analytical method to determine the effect of the digital currency in monetary policy. The research reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which is that the digital currency affects the tools and objectives of monetary policy negatively and that the digital currency affects the function of the central bank in controlling and directing credit because digital currencies are difficult to control Or direct them .
