Why Central Bank Total Assets matters for NGN
A rapidly expanding central bank balance sheet (QE) injects liquidity into the financial system and typically weakens the ngn. Balance sheet reduction (QT, or quantitative tightening) is the opposite—draining reserves and supporting the ngn.
How to interpret this series
Accelerating balance sheet growth is ngn-negative as it signals monetary easing. Declining total assets indicate QT is underway, which is restrictive and tends to support the ngn all else being equal.
