TheCentral Bank of Curaçao and Sint Maarten (CBCS;Dutch:Centrale Bank van Curaçao en Sint Maarten; previously the Bank of the Netherlands Antilles) is thecentral bank for theCaribbean guilder and administers the monetary policy ofCuraçao andSint Maarten. The bank dates to 1828 making it the oldest surviving central bank in the Americas.^[1] The bank was also responsible for theNetherlands Antillean guilder until it was withdrawn on July 1st, 2025.^[2]

Prior to the dissolution of theNetherlands Antilles in October 2010, the bank was responsible for monetary policy and currency throughout the Netherlands Antilles. When theBES islands became subject to theDe Nederlandsche Bank, its present name was adopted. The bank replaced the Netherlands Antillean guilder with the Caribbean guilder in 2025.

There was controversy around the CBCS regarding corruption, most notably due to former CBCS president Emsley Tromp's connections toJohn Deuss andHushang Ansary. Tromp was fired from his position in 2017.^[3]
