Grant Description

Monetary policy consists of various mechanisms, such as interest rates, to allow the government to manage the economy by expanding or contracting the money supply.

Programs must encourage and help host countries to apply monetary policies that keep inflation low in the short- and long-term, establish the basis for financial stability, and are properly coordinated with fiscal policy to maintain internal and external balance.
