28/10/2010 - The monetary policy framework comprises institutional arrangements to determine and implement monetary policy. It provides an anchor for monetary policy, identifies policy objectives and describes how monetary policy is implemented through a set of instruments and operating and intermediate targets. According to the Bank of Uganda Deputy Governor, Louis Kasekende, and Economic Adviser to the Bank of Uganda Governor, Martin Brownbridge, who are authors of a paper titled: “Post-crisis Monetary Policy Frameworks in Sub-Saharan Africa” presented within the framework of the fifth African Economic Conference which is taking place from October 27-29, 2010, in Tunis, a key distinguishing feature of a monetary policy framework is whether monetary policy is anchored on external or domestic targets.
