| Currency Boards - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
| Currency boards: A currency board is a monetary authority that maintains a fixed exchange rate by backing its domestic currency with 100% (or near 100%) foreign reserves of a specific anchor currency (e.g., USD or EUR). This eliminates independent monetary policy, as the domestic money supply is directly tied to the foreign reserves. See also Currency, Currency policy, Central banks._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
