About the indicator

Broad money, an aggregate close to M2/M3, as a percent of GDP: currency outside banks, demand deposits, time and savings deposits and, in a number of countries, short-term securities. The ratio to GDP is conventionally read as a measure of monetization and of the depth of the financial system, not as an indicator of inflationary pressure.
