Benki kuu

Benki kuu ni taasisi inayosimamia mfumo wa sarafu na sera za pesa ya nchi au nchi zenye muungano wa kifedha, ^[1] na kusimamia mfumo wa benki za biashara. Tofauti na benki ya biashara, benki kuu ina uhodhisoko wa kuongeza kiasi cha pesa.

Katika nchi nyingi benki kuu huwa na mamlaka ya usimamizi na udhibiti ili kuhakikisha uthabiti wa benki za biashara na kuzuia tabia ya uzembe au ulaghai inayofanywa na benki inayosimamiwa nayo.

Katika mataifa mengi yaliyoendelea, benki kuu huwa na kiwango kikubwa cha uhuru katika utekelezaji wa shughuli bila kuingiliwa na siasa. ^{[2] [3] [4]} Hata hivyo, udhibiti fulani wa serikali au bunge upo. ^{[5] [6]}
