Line 1: Line 1:
Historically, and narrowly, money referred to cash (notes and coins) in official currency backed by the relevant government.  
1. ''Sustainability - European Union - European Commission.''


Such money may be legal tender.
(TEG).


The European Commission's Technical expert group on sustainable finance.


More generally, money is anything accepted for the settlement of debts in an economy or jurisdiction.
The TEG's work, including the development of the EU taxonomy on environmental sustainability.




To the economist, money is whatever is used for four roles:
2. ''United Nations - sustainability.''
# Medium of exchange.
# Unit of account.
# Store of value.
# Standard for deferred payment.


(AHTEG).


''Fiat money.''
Within the context of the United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), a group of experts convened once or several times to provide expert advice to the Conference of the Parties (COP) on specific issues.  


Money, then, can be many things, but most often today is ''fiat'' (let it be) money, i.e. tokens provided by a government and accepted by them for payment of taxes, or abstract representations of it. The latter are mostly as electronic representations in the accounts of banks and other monetary financial institutions, including [[central bank]]s. Most money in developed countries consists of these records rather than of the tokens issued as fiat money.
For example, the AHTEG (Ad Hoc Technical Expert Group) on climate change and biodiversity.




''Commodity money.''
3.  


In the past money has been commodity money, for example gold or silver or valuable spices or shells, the value of which is in the valuable material or object rather than a nominal value ascribed to (a portion of) it. A government can issue tokens (e.g. notes or coins) exchangeable for a fixed quantity of such a commodity. Such tokens are known as representative money.
More generally, any group established for the purpose of providing specialist technical input to a process.


For example, an arbitration or dispute resolution panel of the World Trade Oganization may establish a technical expert group to assist it in questions of a technical nature, requiring detailed consideration by experts.
