!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is an institution that manages a [Jurisdiction]'s [currency], money supply, and interest rates.
[{$pagename}]s usually oversee the commercial banking system of their respective [Jurisdiction]. In contrast to a commercial bank, a [{$pagename}] possesses a monopoly on increasing the monetary base in the [Jurisdiction], and usually also prints the national currency, which usually serves as the [Jurisdiction]'s legal tender.
[{$pagename}] MAY also act as a "lender of last resort" to the banking sector during times of financial crisis. Most central banks usually also have supervisory and regulatory powers to ensure the solvency of member institutions, prevent bank runs, and prevent reckless or fraudulent behavior by member banks.
