What is a Central Bank?
A central bank is a public institution that is responsible for managing the currency of a country or group of countries, controlling the money supply and implementing monetary policy. An important instrument that central banks use for their monetary policy is the base rate (policy rate). Most of the time the base rate is the rate at which banks can borrow money from the central bank. On this page, we publish the base rates from the most important central banks in the world.
