MONETARY POLICY
Regulation of supply of Money and Cost and Availability of Credit in
the economy.
Variables affected by Monetary Policy in the
economy
Interest Rates
Liquidity
Credit Availability
Exchange Rates
Purpose of Monetary Policy
Maintain price stability, ensure adequate flow of credit to the
productive sectors of the economy and overall economic growth.
FISCAL POLICY
Use of “Government Expenditure”, and “taxation” to manage the
economy.
Variables affected by Fiscal Policy in the economy
Aggregate demand and the level of economic activity
The pattern of resource allocation
The distribution of income.
Purpose of Fiscal Policy
Stabilise economic growth, avoiding the boom and bust
economic cycle
How is the Monetary Policy different from the
Fiscal Policy?
MONETARY POLICY FISCAL POLICY
• Regulates the supply of
money.
• Regulates the cost and
availability of credit in the
economy.
•Deals with both the
lending and borrowing
rates of interest for
commercial banks.
•Aims to maintain price
stability, full employment
and economic growth.
•Defined as a deliberate
change in government
revenue and expenditure
to influence the level of
national output and
prices.
•Broader tool with the
government .
•Used to overcome
recession and control
inflation.
6Monetary Policy
ABOUT MONETARY POLICY
It is a process by which the monetary authority of a country controls
the supply of money, often targeting a rate of interest for the
purpose of promoting economic growth and stability.
In INDIA, RBI was established on April 1,1935 with the provision
of Reserve bank of India Act .
RBI controls the monetary policy. It is announced twice a year,
through which RBI, regulate the price stability for the economy.
1.Slack season policy April-September
2.Busy season policy October-March
GOAL OF MONETARY POLICY
To maintain relatively stable Prices and Low
unemployment
OBJECTIVES
 Rapid Economic Growth
 Price Stability
 Exchange Rate Stability
 Balance of Payments (BOP) Equilibrium
 Full Employment
FORMS OF MONETARY POLICY
Expansionary policy
Increases the total supply of money
in the economy rapidly
Contractionary policy
Decreases the total money
supply, or increases it slowly
Expansionary policy
is used to combat unemployment
in a recession by lowering Interest
Rates .
Contractionary policy
involves raising interest rates
to combat inflation.

POLICY
QUANTITATIVE
MEASURES
QUALITATIVE
MEASURES
• Bank rate
• Open market
operations
• Cash reserve ratio
(CRR)
• Statutory liquidity
ratio (SLR)
• Rationing of credit
• Moral Suasion
• Direct Action
• Regulation in
consumer credit
• Marginal standing
facility(MSF)
BANK RATE POLICY
• Bank rate is the
minimum rate at which
the Central bank provides
loans to the commercial
banks. It is also called the
Discount rate.
• The bank rate has been
12.00% in 1991
8.75% in 2013
 8.75% in 2015

BANK RATE
• Bank Rate is a tool, which central
bank uses for short-term
purposes.
• Funds are provided either through
lending directly or rediscounting
or buying money market
instruments like commercial bills
and treasury bills.
• Increase in Bank Rate increases the
cost of borrowing by commercial
banks which results into the reduction
in credit volume to the banks and
hence declines the supply of money.
• This any revision in the Bank rate
indicates could mean more or less
interest on your deposits and also an
increase or decrease in your EMI.
OPEN MARKET OPERATIONS
 An open market operation is an instruments of monetary
policy which involves buying or selling of
government securities from or to the public and banks.
 This mechanism influences the reserve position of the
banks, yield on government securities and cost of bank
credit.
• The RBI sells government securities to contract the flow of
credit and buys government securities to increase credit
flow.
Open market operation makes bank rate policy effective and
maintains stability in government securities market.
OMO’s TOOL
REPO RATE REVERSE
REPO RATE
Repo rate is the rate at
which RBI lends to
commercial banks
generally against
government securities
Reverse Repo rate is the
rate at which RBI
borrows money from
the commercial banks
Tightening of the policy
The repo rate is 7.75 % The reverse repo rate is
6.75%.

RATE
CASH RESERVE RATIO
 It is the percentage of total deposit in which Commercial
Banks are required to maintain in the form of cash reserves.
 When the RBI feels that the money supply is increasing and
causing an upward pressure on inflation, the RBI has the option
of increasing the CRR thereby reducing the deposits available
with banks to make loans and hence reducing the money
supply and inflation.
• Increase in CRR means that banks have less funds available
and money is sucked out of circulation.
• Thus we can say that this serves duel purposes i.e. it not
only ensures that a portion of bank deposits is totally risk-
free, but also enables RBI to control liquidity in the
system, and thereby, inflation by tying the hands of the
banks in lending money.
STATUTORY LIQUID RATIO
 Every financial institution has to maintain/invest a
certain quantity of liquid assets with themselves at
any point of time of their total time and demand
liabilities before providing credits to its customer.
 These assets can be cash, precious metals,
approved securities like bonds etc. The current
SLR is 21.50%.
CREDIT RATIONING
 It refers to the situation where lenders limit the supply of additional
credit to borrowers who demand funds, even if the latter are willing
to pay higher interest rates.
 Minimum of “Capital : Total Assets” (ratio between capital and total
asset) can also be prescribed by Reserve Bank of India.
Generally two measures are adopted:
 Imposition of upper limits on the credit available to well
developed industries and large scale firms.
 Charging a higher or progressive interest rate on bank loans
beyond a certain limit.
Moral Suasion
Just as a request by
the RBI to the
commercial banks
to take so and so
action and measures
in so and so trend of
the economy.
RBI may request
commercial banks
not to give loans for
unproductive
purpose which does
not add to economic
growth but
increases inflation.
21Monetary Policy
DIRECT CONTROL
 This method is adopted when a commercial bank does not
co-operate the central bank in achieving its desirable
objectives.
 It is used as a last resort in case other methods prove
ineffective.
 In this method the monetary authorities with clear directive to
carry out their lending activity in a specified manner.
Most of the consumer durables like T.V.,
Refrigerator, Motorcar, etc. are available on
installment basis.
If there is excess demand for certain consumer
durables leading to their high prices, central bank
can reduce consumer credit by (a) increasing
down payment, and (b) reducing the number of
installments of repayment of such credit.
Regulation in Consumer
Credit
CHANGE IN LENDING MARGINS
MARGINAL REQUIREMENTS
It is the gap between the value of the mortgaged property and the
amount advanced. RBI increases lending margins to decrease
bank credit.
 Marginal Requirement of loan = current value of security
offered for loan-value of loans granted.
 The marginal requirement is increased for those business
activities, the flow of whose credit is to be restricted in the
economy.
 E.g.- A person mortgages his property worth Rs. 1,00,000
against loan.
The bank will give loan of Rs. 80,000 only.
The marginal requirement here is 20%.
In case the flow of credit has to be increased, the marginal
requirement will be lowered.
RBI has been using this method since 1956.
• Inflation refers to a persistent rise in pricesInflation
• Total volume of money circulating in the economyMoney Supply

commercial banksBank Rate

An increase in bank rate results in commercial banks increasing their lending rates.
