| | ipedia.com: Central bank Article |
 | | Central banks are part of the infrastructure used by the private banking community of a given country, to influence their country's economy. | | | Advocates of central banking argue that a National bank, which is chartered by the government and carries out government-designated monetary policy, is too susceptible to political pressure, which may come from factions that are incompetent to make monetary policy. | | | Although officially state owned in most countries, the central bank is usually an autonomous entity responsible for the stability of the national currency (see also money) and the national financial system as a whole. |

| | Thailand's Debt Crisis and Economic Outlook |
| | Thailand has managed to achieve all the key IMF targets as of the end of 1997 (such as fiscal cash position, monetary and foreign exchange targets as well as current account deficit target). | | | While Thailand enjoyed high economic growth in the first half of the 1990s’, partly as a result of the large capital inflow, the current account deficit began to widen considerably; increasing from about 5% of GDP in 1993 to over 8% of GDP in 1995 and 1996. | | | Note: Short-term debt includes foreign liabilities of commercial banks, and total reserves includes foreign currency assets of commercial banks. |
