Monetary system

From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.


The monetary system is a system securing proper functioning of money by regulating economic agents, transaction types, and money supply.

The state is usually such system's administrator. The current trend, however, is towards international trade and investment flows to alter individual governments' procedures and legislation.
