, 2. MONETARY POLICY OBJECTIVES.
1
Under its monetary policy objectives, central banks aim to achieve the following:
a. Maintain a stable exchange rate: depending on the exchange regime the
country has adopted which either be free-floating exchange or fixed/pegged
exchange, and ensuring smooth flow if the market and maintain foreign
currency reserves.
b. Achieve acceptable levels of economic growth: it is a desire of the country to
achieve economic growth, in cases of a recession then an expansionary
monetary policy can be used.
c. Equitable distribution of income: the monetary policy can achieve equitable
distribution of income through lowering the repo rate so that even the poor
can borrow and finance their small to medium businesses at a low cost of
borrowing.
d. Maintain price stability: is the major objective of the monetary policy in South
Africa since the central bank adopted the inflation-targeting approach with a
set range of 3% to 6%.
e. Achieve and maintain a positive balance of payment position: the balance of
payments and the monetary policy have an indirect relationship. A positive
balance of payments can be lowering interest rate which will result in the
depreciation of the local currency in the short run making exports cheaper to
foreigners and imports expensive for local people.
Monetary Policy instruments
1. Setting minimum statutory reserve requirements:
- The bank would be trying to create a deposit fund from which depositors
can recover something in the event of a bank going under.
- The same statutory deposits may be used to alleviate temporary liquidity
problems by the depositing bank.
- The Central bank may use the same method to monitor money supply
growth within the economy. Should the bank feel that inflation is on the
increase, it may increase the statutory reserve requirement in order to
reduce the banks’ ability to create money.
2. Use of open market operations (OMOs):
- The central bank can sell government securities so as to drain excess
cash in the economy
- The central bank can buy back the government securities so as to inject
cash in the economy.
3. Use of interest rate (usually via the overnight accommodation rate or the repo
rate):
- The repo rate is the rate at which banks that participate in the clearing
borrow money from the central bank. It is also used as an indicator to the
direction of short-term interest rates.
- Banks can be either long or short during clearing. If the market is overall
short and is thus strained of liquidity, the central bank may opt to reduce
the repo rate and should it feel that inflation is on the increase because of
money supply growth, the central bank may increase the repo rate.
4. Use of exchange rates
