Measurement of Money
Measures of money – Concepts
• No unique definition of “money” for the purposes of measurement • View of Milton Friedman – Practical use – How people and firms make use of a given instrument • For Policy purposes money is defined as – Set of liquid financial assets the variation in the stock of which could impact aggregate economic activity – For measurement, money could include certain liquid liabilities of a particular set of institutions
Concept of liquidity
• Different concepts prevail • Stock market – Immediacy, Depth and Resilience in relation to execution of trades in the market • Financial asset – With respect to realizable value • Physical asset – In relation to ease or difficulty of selling • Monetary theory and practice – How close is a given asset to “money” – We will use this term only in the above sense • When we talk of excess or scarce liquidity we will always refer to money and not any other connotation of liquidity
