Introduction
Monetary policy is concerned with the
supply of money in the economy and costs
of borrowing it.
Money is as money does.
The value of money is derived in the same
way as the value of any other commodity is
derived.
4. Money Supply and Banking System4
Money Supply –
Components
Determining what should be included in the
money supply is not as easy as it appears.
Money is something defined as anything
generally acceptable as a medium of
exchange.
The means of transferring bank deposit from
one person to another i.e. cheques - are not
money.
5. Money Supply and Banking System5
The Measurement of
Monetary Aggregates
Since July, 1935, the concept of money supply as
compiled by the RBI was the sum of currency with
the public and demand deposit with me the banking
system.
This came to be known as ‘narrow money’ and
represented as M1.
The concept of ‘broad money’, also referred to as
Aggregate Monetary Resources, equivalent to the
sum of M1 and the time deposits with the
commercial banks was first introduced in the
financial year 1964-65.
6. Money Supply and Banking System6
The Measurement of
Monetary Aggregates
M1: Currency with the public + demand
deposits with banks + other deposits with
RBI
M2: M1+ Post Office Savings Deposits
M3: M1+ Time Deposits with banks
M4: M3+ All Post Office Deposits (excluding
national savings certificates)
7. Money Supply and Banking System7
The Money multiplier Approach
The analysis of balance sheet of the RBI
will give us an insight of its monetary
liabilities, since these liabilities are created
in the process of generating matching
assets by the RBI.
8. Money Supply and Banking System8
The Balance Sheet of the RBI
With respect to the RBI Balance Sheet it is
to noted that the dated securities of the
Central Government include marketable
securities, special securities, special non-
interest bearing securities and gold bonds.
Considering the Government’s currency
liabilities to the public, the RBI acts as an
agent in the issue, distribution and handling
of such coins.
9. Money Supply and Banking System9
High Powered
Money
High Power Money (H)
= Monetary liabilities of the RBI + Government
money
= Currency with the public (C) + Reserves (R) +
Other Deposits with the RBI
= C + R
Where, Reserves (R)
= Vault Cash + Banks’ Deposits with the RBI
= Statutory reserves + Excess reserves
10. Money Supply and Banking System10
The Balance Sheet Approach
or The Structural Approach
This approach is based on the balance sheet of
the consolidated banking sector rather than of the
RBI as in the money multiplier approach.
The broad money (M3) comprises of the monetary
liabilities of the consolidated banking sector, it
follow from the asset side that:
M3 = Net Banking credit to the Governments
+ Bank Credit to the Commercial Sector
+ Net Foreign Exchange Assets of Banking
Sector
+ Government Currency Liabilities to the Public
– Net Non-monetary of the Banking Sector
11. Money Supply and Banking System11
Creation of Money and
Banking System
Changes in money supply arise out of the action
of the treasury, Central Bank.
Banks acquire assets of various kinds, and issue
in payment liabilities on debts, payable at
demand, that are in monetary form and reality and
generally acceptable in the settlement of debts
and payments.
The RBI has the sole right to issue currency notes
except on rupee notes.
The commercial banks are creators of the largest
element of the money supply, namely, demand
deposits.

essential for the smooth functioning of any
