Monetary
policy
can
be
used
to
the
economy
.
Central
banks
change
the
of
money
and
credit
in
order
to
increase
or
decrease
interest
rates
.
A
primary
goal
of
monetary
policy
is
to
promote
stability
-
to
prevent
deflation
or
high
rates
of
inflation
.
Many
central
banks
conduct
monetary
policy
in
an
attempt
to
hit
their
rate
of
inflation
.

Through
its
effect
on
the
interest

,
monetary
policy
works
by
shifting
the
aggregate
curve
.
If
the
central
bank
want
to
the
economy
,
it
will
decrease
the
nominal
interest
rate
.
A
lower
interest
rate
will
lead
to
more

an
increase

an
increase

Monetary
policy

to
the
is
known
as
expansionary
monetary
policy

A
higher
interest
rate
leads
to
lower
spending
,
lower
interest
rate
-
sensitive
consumption
,
a
decrease
in
aggregate
demand
,
and
lower
real

.
Monetary
policy
that
shifts
the
AD
curve
to
the
is
called
contractionary
monetary
policy
.
When
the
economy
is
operating
full
employment
or
experiencing
a
recession
,
the
central
bank
can
use
expansionary
monetary
policy
to
close
the
negative
output
gap
.
When
the
economy
is
experiencing
,
the
central
bank
can
use
contractionary
monetary
policy
to
close
the
positive
output
gap
and
restore
price
stability
.

The
overnight
interbank
lending
rate
is
the
interest
rate
at
which
funds
are
borrowed
and
lent
among
.
The
overnight
interbank
lending
rate
is
also
referred
to
as
the
central
bank's
rate
.
The
overnight
interbank
lending
rate
in
the
United
States
is
called
the
rate
.
The
bank
sets
a
target
policy
rate
,
a
desired
level
for
the
overnight
interbank
lending
rate
.
The
way
in
which
a
central
bank
implements
monetary
policy
to
achieve
its
target
interest
rate
depends
on
whether
the
economy
is
operating
in
an
economy
with
limited
or
reserves
.

The
central
bank
has
policy
tools
it
can
use
in
economies
with
limited
reserves
:
reserve
requirements
,
the
discount
rate
,
and
open
market
operations
.
When
central
banks
decrease
the
reserve
requirement
,
banks
are
allowed
to
lend
a
larger
percentage
of
their
,
leading
them
to
increase
the
money
supply
.
The
increase
in
the
money
supply
leads
to
lower
interest
rates
,
more
and
interest
rate
-
sensitive
consumption
,
and
higher
GDP
.
If
the
central
bank
increases
the
reserve
requirement
,
banks
are
forced
to
reduce
their
,
leading
to
a
fall
in
the
money
supply
,
higher
interest
rates
,
and
lower
GDP
.
Banks
in
need
of
reserves
can
also
from
the
central
bank
.
The
interest
rate
charged
by
banks
is
called
the
discount
rate
.
If
the
central
bank
reduces
the
discount
rate
,
the
cost
to
banks
of
borrowing
from
the
central
bank
,
and
banks
respond
by
increasing
their
own
lending
.
If
the
discount
rate
,
banks
borrow
less
from
the
central
bank
and
the
supply
of
bank
loans
decreases
,
which
decreases
the
money
supply
and
increases
the
interest
rate
.
In
an
open
market
operation
,
the
central
bank
buys
or
sells
government
.
An
open
-
market
of
government
bonds
leads
to
an
increase
in
the
money
supply
,
driving
down
the
equilibrium
interest
rate
to
the
target
level
.

Some
central
banks
implement
monetary
policy
in
an
economy
with
reserves
using
tools
adapted
or
created
following
the
2008
financial
crisis
.
The
interest
on
reserve
balances
(
IORB
)
is
the
rate
the
central
bank
pays
in
interest
to
banks
for
their
balances
.
The
interest
paid
on
reserve
balances
reduces
the
incentive
for
banks
to
lend
at
rates
IORB
because
banks
would
earn
less
from
loaning
their
cash
than
they
would
by
simply
holding
it
as
reserves
.
When
the
central
bank
the
IORB
,
banks
respond
by
holding
more
excess
reserves
.
the
IORB
prompts
banks
to
make
more
loans
because
they
earn
less
by
keeping
cash
in
reserves
.
The
reserves
demand
curve
has
sections
.
The
reserves
demand
curve
is
horizontally
sloped
at
the
rate
.
The
reserves
demand
curve
is
again
at
the
policy
rate
.
The
level
of
reserves
maintained
by
the
central
bank
does
not
depend
on
the
policy
rate
,
therefore
the
supply
curve
for
reserves
is
.
Changes
in
the
lead
to
changes
in
the
policy
rate
.
So
long
as
the
supply
and
demand
for
reserves
in
the
horizontal
range
of
the
demand
curve
for
reserves
,
the
policy
rate
will
be
determined
by
the
rates
administed
by
the
central
bank
.
Monetary
policy
is
subject
to
lags
:
It
takes
for
a
central
bank
to
recognize
ecnomic
problems
and
time
for
monetary
policy
to
affect
the
economy
.
However
,
since
a
central
bank
can
move
much
more
than
the
government
,
monetary
policy
lags
are
shorter
than
fiscal
policy
lags
,
which
makes
monetary
policy
the
preferred
tool
.
