<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 2580659, member: 39&quot;]Did not want to start a new topic just for this post, so here we go ... Koninklijke Joh. Enschedé announced today that they will stop printing paper money. (One article in Dutch is <a href="http://www.volkskrant.nl/economie/drukker-joh-enschede-stopt-de-bankbiljetpersen~a4426037/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.volkskrant.nl/economie/drukker-joh-enschede-stopt-de-bankbiljetpersen~a4426037/" rel="nofollow">here</a>; there are many others.) The main reason is that the market has become very difficult.</p><p><br /></p><p>There is, according to Enschedé, hardly any fair competition as government owned/operated printers enjoy protection in their domestic markets and can offer low prices elsewhere. (Not exactly news, as even in 1990 Joh. Enschedé&#039;s paper money production was not profitable any more, but maybe things got worse.) The company will continue making various other security products.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
