About Marginal Lending Rate — European Union
DEFINITION
The Marginal Lending Rate is a key financial indicator used by central banks to control the supply of money in an economy. It represents the interest rate at which commercial banks can borrow funds from the central bank, and serves as a benchmark for other interest rates in the market. This rate is often adjusted by central banks to influence economic growth, inflation, and overall financial stability. As such, it is closely monitored by investors, businesses, and policymakers as a measure of the current state of the economy.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
