Obecne łagodzenie ilościowe wprowadzone do polityki pieniężnej banków centralnych ma bezprecedensowy wpływ na równowagę monetarną i politykę monetarną jako całość. Kontrola podaży pieniądza i ustalanie stóp procentowych są to główne działania banków centralnych. Dzięki emisji pieniądza banki centralne bezpośrednio wpływają na zachowanie gospodarstw domowych, firm, rynków finansowych i państwa. Strategia polityki pieniężnej Europejskiego Banku Centralnego wymaga określenia agregatów monetarnych, które w perspektywie średnioterminowej są stabilnym i wiarygodnym wskaźnikiem inflacji. Jest to ściśle związane ze wzrostem realnego PKB i stopą bezrobocia. Podczas monitorowania kwestii pieniądza konieczne jest skupienie się nie tylko na jego wielkości, ale także na cechach i funkcjach pieniężnych. Celem pracy jest analiza indywidualnych agregatów monetarnych wyemitowanych pieniędzy w strefie euro, ich odmiennego wpływu na gospodarkę, co w istotny sposób oddziałuje na średniookresowy wzrost rzeczywistych wyników krajowych. W artykule omówiono wyliczenie agregatu do jego różnych elementów w Europejskim Banku Centralnym, co jest znaczące dla realizacji celów polityki pieniężnej.
