There is a vast literature on the traditional macro-economic tasks of stabilization of the economic cycle and achievement of price stability, but the literature on macro economic policies to encourage growth re-balancing is still quite limited.

According to V.A Odoji (1990) defined monetary policy as control of money stock in the order of influence other broad objective which include price stability high level of employment, sustainable economic growth and balance of payment there objectives are achieved through the use of appropriate instrument or tools depending on the level of development of the economy in which monetary policy is being implemented.

In addition to credit contortion Bootle (1998) monetary policy is aimed macro goals of full employment price stability growth and the balance of payment equilibrium with income distribution as a subsidiary objective.

Michael P.T (1999) in his view, he argues that monetary policy work on two economic variables. The aggregates and the supply in circulation with the level of interest rates, the supply of money (basically currency in circulation plus commercial bank post is though to be directly in circulation plus commercial banks post) is though to be directly related to the level of economic activities I the sense that a greater money supply… expanded activities by calling people to purchase more goods and services.

Adekanye F. (2003) it was suggested that the reason why government attempts to controls the money supply is because of it belief that it rates has an effect on the rate of inflation.

Monetary policy may also refers to the printing of money, especially to repay government debt; this always causes inflation and is used as a last resort.
