Open Market Operations


Explanation:
"OMA (Operaciones de Mercado Abierto), son el principal instrumento que tiene el Banco de la República para aumentar o disminuir la cantidad de dinero en la economía. Cuando es necesario aumentar la liquidez, el Banco de la República compra títulos o papeles financieros en el mercado,inyectando dinero a la economía; por el contrario, cuando el Banco quiere disminuir la liquidez, vende títulos y por lo tanto recoge dinero del mercado."
This is a quote from the website of Banco de la Republica, Colombia.
