In his virtual acceptance speech, Acting Director in the ECCB’s Currency Management
Department, Norman Sabaroche, thanked Reconnaissance International for the award,
noting that it is a fitting accolade for the ECCB’s innovation of changing the substrate of its
notes from paper to polymer. The ECCB is the first central bank in the Caribbean to
introduce a full series of polymer banknotes.

In 2019, the ECCB commenced collaboration with its banknote development partner,
De La Rue, to roll out the new family of polymer notes under the tagline: ‘Cleaner, Safer,
Stronger’; a nod to the strength, security and environmentally-conscious designs of the
banknotes. The final denomination in the series, the EC$5, was issued in 2021.
