Talk:Economy of Vatican City

message: Wow... this sorely needs to updated.  Many of the statistics are filled in with "N/A"s, and even the exchange rates are outdated.  Unfortunately, I start a new job tomorrow and won't be able to help out for another couple of weeks. -Maverick 01:50, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

message: Of course the Vatican may do whatever it likes!  :)  But it seems difficult for an outsider (a Wikipedia editor, for example) to differentiate between the Holy See (which deal with the whole world) and Vatican City, which is confined. It is clear that the Vatican/Pope lucidly makes that decision in budgeting, but these separate figures don't seem to be available.
Also, saying that the "main income," out of a total of 255 million euros, is 55 million in Peter's Pence, seems insufficient and without citation. Student7 (talk) 23:02, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Little content 

message: This is currently stated, but I doubt it is true as general as this. It is probably true for coins, since Vatican City is not a Euro country, it participates in the Euro via Italy, as far as I know, the Vatican coins are part of the Italian allocation. It may be true for banknotes, though I am not sure if Vatican banknotes exist since there are no national banknotes in the Euro (there are national coins, but not banknotes). So I guess it would be more correct to say Vatican City depends on Italy for the "supply" of banknotes, but you could say that is semantics. I am pretty sure it is wrong for stamps. Poste Vaticane is a Vatican government office run by Vatican City, issuing its own stamps, not a subdivision of Poste Italiane or something like that. It might be that Vatican stamps are printed by an Italian printer (not sure if there is a state printer in Italy), but this is merely a contractual relationship and I am sure Poste Vaticane would be free to contract any other security printer, say Enschede or Bundesdruckerei or De La Rue, just to name a few well-known names. Not sure what exactly "other valuable titles" are, but say Vatican City would decide to issue bonds, and to do so in printed form, what would prevent them from getting those printed wherever they like? Coins and banknotes are different since Vatican City does neither have its own currency nor does it directly participate in the Euro, but otherwise, why couldn't they source printing services outside Italy? I am sure they do contract non-Italian companies for a range of other services.2001:BB8:2002:2400:64E3:F42A:3E93:1A86 (talk) 17:46, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
