Monetization Of Fiscal Deficits And Covid-19: A Primer, Aidan Lawson, Greg Feldberg
Journal of Financial Crises
Monetization—also known as “money-financed fiscal programs” or “money-printing”—occurs when a government finances itself by issuing currency or other non-interest-bearing liabilities, such as bank reserves.

As government deficits climbed, monetization re-entered the conversation as a way to avoid the massive debt burdens that some nations may face. This paper describes how monetization works, provides key historical examples, and examines …
