Central banks and monetary policy

Central banks manage the money supply to balance growth against inflation — a task that would be difficult even with complete information, and is performed without it. Their decisions on interest rates and credit conditions flow through the economy in ways that affect every mortgage, every business loan, and every worker's purchasing power. Understanding their role is understanding one of the levers that shapes the conditions of ordinary financial life.
