What does Money Signify
   Medium for exchange of Value
   Count of „your‟ value addition to society
   Success & Self Esteem
   It's the center around which world revolves
   “ Its all about money, honey”........
Why was Money Invented ?

   Specialization of Labour made economic
    exchange a fundamental necessity

   When the division of labor has been once
    thoroughly established, it is but a very small
    part of a man’s wants which the produce of his
    own labor can supply..
                    – Adam Smith, Wealth Of Nations
The Ladder of Economic Civilization
Stages in development of money
    Barter trade

    Commodity money

    Standardized Coinage

    Representative Money

    Fiat Money

    Credit Money

    Electronic Money
Step 1 – Barter Trade
   Most primitive form of reciprocal exchange
   Barter involves only two people; each has
    something the other wants
   “Hungry weaver is searching for a naked farmer”

   Limitations
      Coincidence of wants

      Perishability

      Inefficient
The First Evolutionary Step
Commodity Money
  Valued Commodity as means of exchange
  Early examples – Shells, Food Grains, Cow etc
  Evolved into Metallic Money – Durable, Fungible
   and Portable
The First Evolutionary Step
Standard Coinage
    Egypt used gold bars in 400 BC
    Discovery of Touchstone – tool for assaying
     value of gold in an alloy
    Concept of Standard Coinage was introduced
    Govt. assertion that value of money lay in the
     emblem
    Debasement of Currency – coin as unit of
     value (not weight)
The Second Evolutionary Step
Representative Money
     Token or certificate (made of paper), backed by
      an equivalent reserve
     Started with 'Warehouse Receipts' issued by
      „Girobanks‟
     Receipts as medium of exchange
     Soon receipt issuance overshot actual reserves
      to accommodate loan demand
     Girobanks introduced std accounting methods
      & deposit accounts for depositors
The Second Evolutionary Step
Fiat Money
     Money, not backed by reserves
     Derives stand-alone value by government
      decree
     Money is a 'Forced / Legal Tender'
Gold Standard – 1901 to 1932

   Money system in which regions' common
    medium of exchange are paper notes freely
    convertible into pre-set fixed quantities of gold
   Gold standard was intended to force monetary
    prudence by respective govt.
   Abandoned due to high war expenses followed
    by deflation / depression
Brettons Wood – July 1944
   Conference after 2nd World War to discuss
    financial architecture
   Resulted in
      Formation of IMF and IBRD (World Bank)

      Gold was replaced with Dollar as
        international reserve currency
      However dollar was pegged to gold at
        pre-fixed rate
   Currencies were made convertible
The Third Evolutionary Step
Credit Money
     IOUs, Promissory Notes, Overdraft
     Exists in conjunction with other forms of
      monies
     Enabled 'Fractional Reserve Banking' –
      thereby increasing money supply
     When over-leveraged, has led to financial
      bankruptcies
The Fourth Evolutionary Step
Electronic Money
     Internet fund transfers
     Mobile fund transfers
