Description

Banking and Finance by Dr. Akhilesh Chandra Prabhakar is a comprehensive and research-based academic textbook exploring the core principles of money, banking, and finance. Structured into two main parts, the book covers both foundational theories and advanced policy debates in the context of globalization, digitalization, and financial transformation. Part I introduces students to the evolution, nature, and functions of money, including its roles as a medium of exchange, store of value, and unit of account. It traces the historical development of monetary systems from barter and commodity money to fiat and digital currencies, including cryptocurrencies and e-money. The text highlights the macroeconomic importance of money in determining inflation, interest rates, and economic growth. Central banking is extensively discussed, with particular focus on the Federal Reserve System. Students learn how monetary policy tools such as open market operations, the discount rate, and reserve requirements influence aggregate demand and economic activity. The text also elaborates on the monetary policy transmission mechanism and the modern challenges of inflation targeting, exchange rate management, and global financial integration. Part II dives into financial systems, neoliberal policies, and international capital flows. It examines the roles and structures of commercial banks, investment institutions, and regulatory frameworks, while assessing how global financial systems affect national policy autonomy. Chapters also explore corporate social responsibility and the growing relevance of digital finance, AI, and decentralized technologies in shaping future economic landscapes. The textbook offers tutorial activities after each chapter, reinforcing applied understanding. With accessible explanations, historical context, and modern relevance, this book is suited for students of economics, business, and public policy, as well as policymakers and development practitioners.
