Currency Printing

Currency printing is the process by which a country's central bank produces physical money—paper bills and metal coins—used in everyday transactions. This process involves designing, printing, and securing currency to prevent counterfeiting. Central banks determine the amount of money to print based on economic needs, such as inflation control and financial stability. While physical currency represents wider money supply, most modern transactions are digital, with printing primarily serving cash circulation and reserve needs. Proper management ensures that the money supply supports economic growth without causing excessive inflation.
