24. Instruments of Monetary Policy

25. I. Quantitative Tools
 Bank Rate Policy – It refers to rate at which the central bank
(i.e. RBI) rediscounts bills and prepares of commercial banks or
provides advance to commercial banks against approved
securities.
 Open Market Operations- It refers to the purchase and/or sale
of short term and long term securities by the RBI in the open
market. The OMO is used to wipe out shortage of money in the
money market
 Variations in Reserve Ratios- SLR & CRR -RBI increases VRR
during the inflation to reduce the purchasing power and credit
creation. But during the recession or depression it lowers the VRR
making more cash reserves available for credit expansion.

26. 2. Qualitative Tools
Prescription of margin requirements- It refers to the
"proportion of the loan amount which is not financed by the bank". Or
in other words, it is that part of a loan which a borrower has to raise in
order to get finance for his purpose.
Consumer credit regulation - RBI fixes the quota of credit for
commercial banks. It means at maximum, how much volume of money a
commercial bank can grant as loan for a particular activity. Thus
by increasing this quota RBI can increase the credit supply in an
economy and by decreasing quota RBI can restrict credit supply.
 Moral suasion- It means persuasion and request. To arrest
inflationary situation RBI persuades and request the commercial banks
to refrain from giving loans for non-essential purposes. On the other
hand, to counteract deflation central bank persuades the commercial
banks to extend credit for different purposes.

27. Direct action -This method is adopted when a commercial bank
does not co-operate the central bank in achieving its desirable
objectives. Direct action may take any of the following forms:
•Central banks may charge a penal rate of interest over and above the
bank rate upon the defaulting banks;
•Central bank may refuse to rediscount the bills of those banks which
are not following its directives;
•Central bank may refuse to grant further accommodation to those
banks whose borrowings are in excess of their capital and reserves.
