Summary:

Describes current implementation of monetary policy, explains the three primary reasons why U.S. Treasuries are the favored tool of open market operations, examines financial assets that the Federal Reserve might employ and compares them to U.S. Treasuries, and reviews the efficacy of using reserve requirements or the discount window for monetary policy instead of the buying and selling of assets.
