Monetary economics

Monetary economics is the branch of economics that studies the different theories of money: it provides a framework for analyzing money and considers its functions (such as medium of exchange, store of value, and unit of account), and it considers how money can gain acceptance purely because of its convenience as a public good.^[1] The discipline has historically prefigured, and remains integrally linked to, macroeconomics.^[2] This branch also examines the effects of monetary systems, including regulation of money and associated financial institutions^[3] and international aspects.^[4]

Modern analysis has attempted to provide microfoundations for the demand for money^[5] and to distinguish valid nominal and real monetary relationships for micro or macro uses, including their influence on the aggregate demand for output.^[6] Its methods include deriving and testing the implications of money as a substitute for other assets^[7] and as based on explicit frictions.^[8]
