The 'Pericles 2020' programme is an exchange, assistance and training programme for the protection of the euro against counterfeiting. It replaces the Pericles programme that was established in 2001 and ran in the period 2002-2013.

The programme was established by Regulation (EU) No 331/2014 and its application was subsequntly extended to the non-participating Member States by Regulation (EU) No 2015/768. Regulation (EU) No 331/2014 establishes the duration of the programme until 31 December 2020.

Article 13(3) of the Regulation requires the European Commission to provide annual information on the results of the programme to the European Parliament and to the Council. This second annual report responds to that requirement in relation to the year 2015.
