Digital Euro and Crypto-Asset Regulation in the European Union (DECAR:EU) is a Jean Monnet Module dedicated to the study of EU law governing digital finance, payments, and emerging financial technologies. The module focuses on the legal framework of the Digital Euro and crypto-assets, with particular attention to regulation, supervision, and the prevention of misuse within the European financial system.

DECAR:EU combines advanced teaching with applied research and policy dialogue. It is designed for students with a strong background in law and finance, offering structured and practice-oriented insight into European payment law, crypto-asset regulation, and the functioning of EU financial and banking systems. Through two specialised courses, students develop a deep understanding of how contractual relationships, payment mechanisms, and digital financial instruments operate under EU law.

The module is further strengthened by a dedicated research component, producing high-quality academic outputs, including a book on the implementation of the Digital Euro and several scholarly papers on the regulation of digital financial assets.
