How will 'Reverse Repo Rate' and 'Open Market Operations' control excess money supply in an economy? |
| Answer» Solution :Reverse Reporate is the rate at which Central Bank borrows money funds COMMERCIAL banks. INCREASE in Reverse Repo Rate INDUCES banks to transfer more funds to Central Bank and reduces banks' ability to create credit. OPEN Market OPERATIONS refers to buying and selling of government securities by Central Bank from/to public and commercial banks. Sale of such securities reduces the reserve of commercial banks and adversely affects bank's ability to create credit and hence decreases the money supply in the economy. | |
