Each episode dissects a specific policy move — a rate hike by the Federal Reserve, a quantitative easing program by the ECB, or a reserve requirement change by the People's Bank of China — and traces its impact on inflation, employment, and financial markets. Lucas brings the macroeconomic framework, citing exact data points from recent central bank statements and academic research. Luna pushes for the real-world implications: what does a 25-basis-point increase mean for a small business owner in Ohio or a bond trader in London? Together, they strip away jargon to reveal the mechanics of monetary transmission. The show serves investors, economics students, and professionals who need to understand policy signals without the noise. No hot takes, no political spin — just a clear-eyed look at how decisions made in marble halls ripple through the global economy. Can a central bank really steer growth without causing a recession? Lucas and Luna don't claim to have the answer, but they give you the tools to decide for yourself. #MonetaryPolicy #CentralBanks #FederalReserve #ECB #InterestRa…","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T16:19:46.455535+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/monetary-policy-explained-with-fexingo-central-banks-money-supply-and-interest-rates-7872013"},"episode":{"title":"How Central Banks Are Using Standing Repo Facilities","slug":"how-central-banks-are-using-standing-repo-facilities","published_at":"2026-07-06T19:39:42+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/monetary-policy-explained-with-fexingo-central-banks-money-supply-and-interest-rates-7872013/how-central-banks-are-using-standing-repo-facilities","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/monetary-policy-explained-with-fexingo-central-banks-money-supply-and-interest-rates-7872013","url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/monetary-policy-explained/episode-0095.mp3","audio_url":"https://audio.fexingo.com/business/monetary-policy-explained/episode-0095.mp3","summary":"Central banks have a new emergency tool that doesn't wait for a crisis. Lucas and Luna explain the Standing Repo Facility — a permanent backstop for overnight lending that the Fed introduced in 2021 and other central banks are now adopting. They walk through how the facility works in practice, why it replaces the ad-hoc repo operations of September 2019, and what it means for bank liquidity, money market functioning, and the transmission of monetary policy. Specific focus on the New York Fed's Standing Repo Facility usage data through mid-2026, and the Bank of England's parallel Sterling Monetary Framework reforms.
