Menurut TheSortRun
Tight Money Policy
This policy is exercised in times of inflation.
Components:
1. Selling securities to banks and the public.
This decreases the supply of money. The public is
giving money to the Federal Reserve. In exchange, the Fed is giving the
public/banks bonds, which isn’t money. Hence, there is less money
circulating in the economy.Because banks now have less reserves, they cannot loan
as much money to the public.2. Increase the Federal Funds Rate
By increasing the Federal Funds rate, it costs more
interest for banks to borrow from other banks. Thus, banks have less excess
reserves and lend less to the public.3. Increasing the Discount Rate
Commercial banks loaning from the Federal Reserve now
have less excess reserves. Therefore, they cannot loan as much money to the
public.4. Increase the Reserve Ratio
By increasing the reserve ratio, banks now have less
excess reserves. Therefore, money supply has been decreased, and the banks
cannot loan as much money to the public.
Jadi sebenarnya tujuan dari Tight-Money Policy (atau kalau diterjemahkan dalam Bahasa Indonesia yang baik dan benar adalah Kebijakan Uang Ketat?) adalah mengerem laju inflasi ya? Jadi supaya uang banyak beredar di publik ya.. Jadi supaya transaksi antar bank meningkat ya… Jadi supaya aktivitas ekonomi meningkat ya…Jadi supaya harga barang ngga merambat naik ya….
