Solution
The central bank is the sole authority for the issue of currency in the country. All the currency issued by the central bank is its monetary liability. Notes issued by the central bank are circulated as legal tender money.
Two Reasons:
The monopoly of issuing notes promotes efficiency in the financial system because:
- It brings about uniformity in currency note circulation.
- It gives the Central Bank direct control over one of the components of the money supply.
