12. TOOLS / INSTRUMENTS OF
MONETARY POLICY
There are two types of instruments such
as:
âą Quantitative Measures
âą Qualitative Measures
13. QUANTITATIVE MEASURES:
âą Open Market Operation
âą Change in Reserve Requirements
âą Changes in Reserve Capital
âą Credit Rationing
âą Bank Rate Policy
âą Changes in Marginal Requirements
14. OPEN MARKET OPERATION
ïPurchase and sale of eligible securities by
the central bank.
ïAt inflation and boom, the central bank sells
securities in the open market and withdraws the
surplus money from circulation.
15. CHANGES IN RESERVE RATIO:
ïThrough this policy the central bank determines that a
certain proportion of cash deposit from commercial banks is
to be deposited with it (central bank) so that the central bank
by this way influences the volume of credit in country.
ï Example in Pakistan a total of 5 % cash is to be kept
against demand and time deposits in the central bank.
16. ïIf the central bank wants to reduce money
supply it increases the reserve ratio
requirement.
ïIf the central bank wants to increase money
supply it decreases the reserve ratio
requirement.
17. CREDIT RATIONING
ïBy credit rationing the central bank fixes the credit
ceiling allowed for each and every commercial bank
and will not give further credit to them beyond limit
allowed.
18. ïIt is the rate at which central bank rediscount
the first class bills.
ïDuring the period of inflation central bank
raises bank rate.
ïDuring the period of deflation and depression
central bank lowers the bank rate.
BANK RATE:
19. CHANGES IN MARGIN
REQUIREMENTS:
Marginal requirement is the percentage difference between
the value of the collateral against the loan and the amount
of loan given itself to the borrower by commercial banks
Example: The collateral is 100 and the loan given by the
bank is 75. thus by this way we can say that margin
requirement is 25%.
21. DIRECTACTION:
âąThis method of control will only be applied when
the previous method has failed. As, it is now
assumed that commercial banks have now become a
threat to the policy, in spite of moral suasion i-e they
continue to give loans as usual and thus the central
bank is forced to take direct action against these
commercial banks.
22. PUBLICITY:
ïFrom time to time central bank publishes details
concerning commercial banks.
ïThe central bank refers to such measure specially
when the inflation period is getting worse.
ïThe reason for central bank doing this is to keep the
public aware of the commercial banks activities so
that the people actually know to what and where
their money has gone.
23. MORAL SUASION
âąMoral suasion means persuasion and request. To
arrest inflationary situation central bank persuades
and request the commercial banks to refrain from
giving loans for speculative and non-essential
purposes. On the other hand, to counteract
deflation central bank persuades the commercial
banks to extend credit for different purposes.
