Banks create money. But how? Also see box 154 in the textbook on page 324
Banks allow the public to create demand
deposits by means of cheque accounts;
meaning people are now able to transfer money
to someone by writing a check (a promise that
the bank will pay them)
Demand deposits can be created by giving the
bank a certain amount of money and then you
get a cheque book for the same amount
Or a bank will lend you same amount of the
money someone else saved, if they are sure you
will be able to pay it back.

Open-market policy
If the SARB would like to decrease the amount of money in
the economy, they can write out Treasury Bills. This is a type
of interest yielding investment. The SARB sell the bond to
the public and so they withdraw money from the public.
