The transferability of the banknote is absolute; it is the cash that reflects the higher degree of liquidity of any asset.

A person becomes the holder of banknotes in the result of payment for any public duties or private law monetary obligations.

The inflation process leads to continuous depreciation of the circulating banknotes. The banknote as a means of payment is not an investment tool and legal means of generating income as a result of the economic growth of the issuer.
