| Fiat Money - Economics Dictionary of Arguments | |||
| Fiat money: Fiat money is currency that has no intrinsic value and is not backed by a physical commodity like gold. Its value comes solely from government regulation and public trust. Governments declare it legal tender, meaning it must be accepted for payment of debts. Most modern currencies, like the U.S. dollar, are fiat money. See also Gold Standard, Central Banks, Monetary policy._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them.
