Country comparison

M2 Money Supply by Country

M2 is a broad measure of the money supply: currency in circulation plus demand deposits, savings deposits, money-market funds, and other short-term liquid balances. It is published monthly by most major central banks.

Why compare M2 Money Supply across countries?

M2 growth tracks the cumulative effect of credit creation, fiscal transfers, and central-bank balance-sheet operations. Sustained M2 expansion above nominal GDP growth historically associates with future inflation pressure and currency weakness; M2 contraction (rare) is a tightening signal.

How to read the country list

Read year-over-year growth rate against nominal GDP growth as a rough gauge of monetary excess or shortage. Compare across currencies for relative monetary stance. M2 in China, in particular, is closely watched for global liquidity signals.
