Summary
The term money refers to assets that people
regularly use to buy goods and services.
Money serves three functions in an economy:
as a medium of exchange, a unit of account,
and a store of value.
Commodity money is money that has intrinsic
value.
Fiat money is money without intrinsic value.

Summary
Bank Negara Malaysia, BNM regulates
Malaysias monetary system.
It controls the money supply through openmarket operations or by changing reserve
requirements or the discount rate.
Summary
When banks loan out their deposits, they
increase the quantity of money in the
economy.
Because BNM cannot control the amount
bankers choose to lend or the amount
households choose to deposit in banks, BNMs
control of the money supply is imperfect.
