Por qué importa
Money growth was once a direct target of central banks; today it is read as a signal of lending, spending and future inflation, and of how loose or tight the central bank's policy really is (quantitative easing shows up here first).
Cómo se calcula
Banks report their deposits to the central bank, which adds them up by category; the figure is usually shown as the change from a year earlier.
M1 = currency + overnight deposits
M2 = M1 + short-term savings and time deposits
M3 = M2 + repos, money-market funds and short debtQué significan los cambios
- Fast money growth with an economy near full capacity is a warning of inflation to come.
- Shrinking money (as in 2023 in several countries) signals tight credit.
- Markets usually react little; it matters for the medium-term picture.
Una breve historia
Milton Friedman's monetarism made money supply the centre of policy in the 1970s and early 1980s ("inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon"). Its link with inflation proved unstable and central banks moved to interest-rate targets.
