CREATION OF CREDIT BY COMMERCIAL BANKS (PART 2)


-  Creation of credit by Commercial Banks by way of deposits

- Historical experience of Commercial Banks lead them to lend out loans to productive sectors by keeping with themselves certain RESERVES

- Money Multiplier is inversely related to Legal Reserve Ratio

- Money Multiplier = 1/LRR 

Which means that if LRR is raised, less money will be created by Commercial Banks and vice versa.
