A central bank may close down a commercial bank if they feel that the bank isn't doing its duties correctly. If it is cheating customers or misusing funds or not following the guidelines laid down by the central bank it can be closed. Usually central banks give warnings to a bank if they find anything and if their warnings are not listened to, they resort to closing the commercial bank down as the last resort.

Defination: Monetary policy is the oldest policy for the economic stability. It is a policy which is adopted by the central bank of the country to control the supply of money: We can say that all those methods which are adopted by central bank, of the country to control the supply of money are called the monetary policy. In simple words, monetary policy means monetary management. In the words of Harry G. Johnson, "It is a policy of central bank to control the supply of money with the aim of achieving macroeconomic stability". Tools Of Monetary Policy They are classified into 1. Quantitative Methods 2. Qualitative Methods 1. Quantitative Methods: They consists of those methods which Physically affect the amount of credit creation in the economy. They are as: 1) Changes in Bank Rate Policy or Rediscount Rate: The rate at which the central bank of the country gives loans to commercial banks is known as Bank Rate or re-discount rate, In Pakistan; State Bank charges 10% as bank rate. By changing such rate of interest, the central bank can influence the supply of money in the country. To control inflation the central bank increases the rate of interest. The commercial banks will also increase their rate of interest. Accordingly, the loans will decrease, investment, output and prices will fall. In this way, inflation will be controlled. Now, we assume that the country is facing deflation. To remove deflation central bank will decrease the bank rate, the commercial banks will also decrease the rate of inl91'Cst. In this way, people will get more loans. Investment production, employment and Prices will start rising up. Accordingly, deflation will be controlled. Limitations: But the success of the bank rate policy depends upon * The fact that how flexible is the economic system. How rapidly, there will be the effect of bank rate on other variables of the economy, like prices, wages, Interest and output, etc. * Commercial banks should abide by the instructions of the central bank. If the central bank brings changes in the rate of interest, the commercial banks should also change the rate of interest. * If commercial banks already have excess reserves then commercial banks will not depend upon central bank. It this way, they will not care for changes in the rate of interest from central bank. * If economic activity is flourishing or economy is having boom, then the business class will be prepared to pay even higher rate of interest and inflation will not to be controlled. 2) Open Market Operation .. This is the second instrument of the monetary policy. Under this technique, the central bank sells or purchases 'government securities. If the central bank finds that commercial banks are providing excessive loans which are creating inflation. To remove the inflation, the central bank sells the government securities. The commercial banks will purchase these securities to earn interest against such securities. In this way, the resources of commercial banks will go down. They will advance less loans. Accordingly, the inflation will be controlled. If there is deflation in the economy. To control the deflation, the central bank purchases the government securities. Then the monetary base of the commercial banks will increase their loaning power will increase. As a result, investment will increase, income and prices will go up. LimitationsThe problem is that, in most of the countries the money market is not organized where the securities could be sold or bought. The funds which are collected through sale of government securities should not be spent on unproductive fields. 3) Changes in Reserve Requirements Each commercial bank has to keep a certain proportion of its deposits in the form of reserves just to meet the demands of the depositors. As in the case of Pakistan, each commercial bank has to keep 30% of its deposits to meet the needs of its depositors. The central bank can influence this reserve rate. If the central bank realizes that the commercial banks are advancing excessive loans, it will increase the reserve requirements. Accordingly, commercial banks could advance less loans. On the other hand, in deflation, if the central bank reduces the reserve requirements, the commercial banks will be able to advance' more loans. Hence, deflation could be removed. 4) Changes in Reserve CapitalEach commercial bank has to keep a certain ratio of its deposit with central bank. In case of Pakistan, each commercial bank has to keep 5% of its deposit in the central bank. By changing the reserve capital, a central bank can control the supply of money by commercial banks. When there is inflation in the economy. To remove this inflation, the central bank will increase the reserve ratio. As a result, lending of commercial banks will fall. As a result the supply of money will decrease. On the other hand, if central bank decreases the 'reserve ratio, the commercial banks will be having more funds to advance. Accordingly, the deflation could be controlled. 5) Changes in Marginal Requirements Commercial banks do not give loans against leaves, rather they ask for pledges to make. How much a person will have to pledge is settled by the central bank. This is given the name of marginal requirement. The central bank can bring changes in the marginal requirements. If there is inflation in the economy, the marginal requirements will increase. In this way, people will get less loans. As a result, supply of money will decrease. During deflation the marginal requirements are decreased. Hence people will get more loans from the commercial banks. As a result supply of money will go up and deflation will be controlled. 6) Credit Ceiling/Rationing of Credit The central bank can issue directions that loans will be given to commercial banks upto a certain limit. As a result, the commercial banks-will be careful in advancing loans to the people. But this is a very strict method, hardly adopted by the central bank. Moreover, if the commercial banks are having other sources to borrow, they will not bother for this policy. 2) Qualitative Methods * Moral Suasion: It is concerned with just as a moral request by central bank to commercial banks that loans should not be given for unproductive fields which create inflation. Loans should not be given for speculative purposes and hoarding. But such like requests could be effective in the developed countries. * Consumers Credit Control: This instrument is applied during inflation. If the central bank wants to control the supply of money, it will issue directions to commercial banks that loans should not be advanced for consumption purposes or for consumer durables because they create inflation. * Direct Action: The instrument of direct action is concerned with the policy of central bank against commercial banks. It can refuse to give loans to commercial banks. The central bank will not advance loan to commercial banks for the sectors which create inflation. Moreover, if commercial banks do not follow the instructions of the central bank, It will refuse to lend commercial banks * Publicity: The central bank of the country is the overall in charge of economic stability of the country. Its aim is to protect the economy from inflation and deflation. For this purpose, it analyses the whole economy. It keeps an eye over the activities of the commercial banks. If the commercial banks are found advancing loans which create inflation, their activities will be unhealthy for whole economy. The central bank can black list such banks. Thus to avoid such bad reputation in' future, they will be careful in advancing loans. By: Shafaq Chohan

Yes, depending on the bank that you have your accounts in. Most commercial banks have people in the bank that will sit down with you and go through all of your investments and accounts and help you with what you want to do.
(a) Bank Rate: It is the rate at which central bank discounts the securities of commercial banks or advance loans to commercial banks. This rate is the minimum and it affects both cost and availability of credit. Bank rate is different from market rate. Market rate is the rate of discount prevailing in the money market among other lending institutions. Generally bank rate is higher than the market rate. If the bank rate is changed all the other rates normally change at the same direction. A central bank control credit by manipulating the bank rate. If the central bank raise the bank rate to control credit, the market discount rate and other lending rates in the money will go up. The cost of credit goes up and demand for credit goes down. As a result, the volume of bank loans and advances is curtailed. Thus raise in bank rate will contract credit.(b) Open Market Operation: It refers to buying and selling of Government securities by the central bank in the open market. this method of credit control become very popular after the 1st World War. During inflation, the bank will securities and during depression, it will purchase securities from the public and financial institutions. The RBI is empowered to buy and sell government securities from the public and financial institutions. The RBI is empowered to buy and sell government securities, treasury bills and other approved securities. The central bank uses the weapon to overcome seasonal stringency in funds during the slack season.When the central bank sells securities, they are purchased by the commercial banks and private individuals. So money supply is reduced in the economy and there is contraction in credit.When the securities are purchased by the central bank, money goes to the commercial banks and the customers. SO money supply is increased in the economy and there is more demand for credit.Thus open market operation is one of the superior instrument of credit control. But for achieving an ideal result both Bank Rate and Open Market Operation must be used simultaneously.(c) Variable Reserve Ratio (VRR): This is a new method of credit control adopted by central bank. Commercial banks keep cash reserves with the central bank to maintain for the purpose of liquidity and also to provide the means for credit control. The cash reserve is also called minimum legal reserve requirement. The percentage of this ratio can be changed legally by the central bank. The credit creation of commercial banks depends on the value of cash reserves. If the value of reserve ratio increase and other things remain constant, the power of credit creation by the commercial bank is decreased and vice versa. Thus by varying the reserve ratio, the lending capacity of commercial banks can be affected.(B) Qualitative or Selective Control Method:It is also known as qualitative credit control. This method is used to control the flow of credit to particular sectors of the economy. The direction of credit is regulated by the central bank. This method is used as a complementary to quantitative credit control discourage the flow of credit to unproductive sectors and speculative activities and also to attain price stability. The main instruments used for this purpose are:(1) Varying margin requirements for certain bank: While lending commercial banks accept securities, deduct a certain margin from the market value of the security. This margin is fixed by the central bank and adjust according to the requirements. This method affect the demand for credit rather than the quantity and cost of credit. This method is very effective to control supply of credit for speculative dealing in the stock exchange market. It also helps for checking inflation when the margin is raised. If the margin is fixed as 30%, the commercial banks can lend up to 70% of the market value of security. This method has been used by RBI since 1956 with suitable modifications from time to time as per the demand and supply of commodities.(2) Regulation of consumer's credit: Apart from trade and industry a great amount of credit is given to the consumers for purchasing durable goods also. RBI seeks to control such credit in the following ways:(a) by regulating the minimum down payments on specific goods.(b) by fixing the coverage of selective consumers durable goods.(c) by regulating the maximum maturities on all installment credit and(d) by fixing exemption costs of installment purchase of specific goods.(3) Control through Directives: Under this system, the central bank can issue directives for the credit control. There may be a written or oral voluntary agreement between the central bank and commercial banks in this regard. Sometimes the commercial banks do not follow these directives of the RBI.(4) Rationing of credit: The amount of credit to be granted is fixed by the central bank. Credit is rationed by limiting the amount available to each commercial bank. The RBI can also restrict the discounting of bills. Credit can also be rationed by the fixation of ceiling for loans and advances.(5) Direct Action: It is an extreme step taken by the RBI. It involves refusal by RBI to extend credit facilities, denial of permission to open new branches etc. RBI also gives wide publicity about the erring banks to create awareness amongst the public.(6) Moral suasion: RBI uses persuasion to influence lending activities of banks. It sends letters to banks periodically, advising them to follow sound principles of banking. Discussions are held by the RBI with banks to control the flow of credit to the desired sectors.
