Hindi

मौद्रिक नीति (Monetary Policy) वह नीति है जिसके माध्यम से किसी देश का केंद्रीय बैंक (भारत में भारतीय रिज़र्व बैंक - RBI) मुद्रा आपूर्ति (Money Supply), ब्याज दरों (Interest Rates) और ऋण की उपलब्धता को नियंत्रित करता है।

मौद्रिक नीति का मुख्य उद्देश्य:

  • मूल्य स्थिरता (Price Stability) बनाए रखना।
  • मुद्रास्फीति (Inflation) को नियंत्रित करना।
  • आर्थिक विकास (Economic Growth) को समर्थन देना।

भारत में RBI का प्रमुख लक्ष्य मुद्रास्फीति को नियंत्रित रखते हुए मूल्य स्थिरता सुनिश्चित करना है।
