This study examines the Nigerian money market. It instruments and the influence of excess reserve ratio, interest rate as monetary policy tools to control the flow/level of funds in circulation. Finally, a linear regression analysis is run using SPSS to determine how effective these monetary policy tools adopted have influenced the demand for money in Nigeria since 1980. It was therefore recommended that the CBN should discourage the use of short-term funds to finance long-term projects among others.
