Italian term

mezzi cartacei avvalorati

Italian to English Other Paper / Paper Manufacturing security paper
This is the full sentence:

A volte è molto difficile individuare se una banconota o un documento è falso o contraffatto e la proliferazione di banconote o ***mezzi cartacei avvalorati*** non veri, può essere fonte di rilevanti perdite economiche

Out of my depth here. I was thinking of "means of payment in paper form" (i.e. cheques etc.), but would appreciate an expert's opinion.

TIA
