About this data
Monetary policy framework comprises the structures in place that enable and guide the conduct of monetary policy. In this project, we provide a multidimensional characterization of monetary policy frameworks across three pillars: Independence and Accountability, Policy and Operational Strategy, and Communications (IAPOC). This database covers 50 advanced economies, emerging markets, and low-income developing countries, from 2007 to 2018 (being extended).
