The Money Supply M4 is a broad measure of the money supply in the UK, providing important data for evaluating the health of the economy. M4 includes cash, deposits, short-term debt of financial institutions, and other highly liquid assets. This indicator shows the total amount of money supply driving economic activity and is widely used as a key indicator of inflation and economic growth.
The year-on-year Money Supply M4 indicates how much it has increased or decreased compared to the same month of the previous year. This data is released monthly by the Bank of England (BOE) and is used to understand economic trends. An increase in M4 suggests an active economy with rising consumption and investment. Conversely, a decrease may indicate stagnant economic activity.
This indicator can also influence monetary policy decisions. For example, if the money supply is increasing excessively, there is a heightened risk of inflation, and the BOE might consider raising interest rates. Conversely, if the money supply is decreasing, the BOE might consider lowering interest rates to stimulate the economy.
