mediumRevision notes
Key points
- Money acts as a medium of exchange and makes transactions easier than barter.
- Formal credit is generally safer than informal credit because it is regulated and usually cheaper.
- Globalisation connects producers and consumers across countries but creates both opportunities and risks.
Money and credit
Revise double coincidence of wants, modern forms of money, deposits, loans, collateral, terms of credit, and self-help groups.
Credit can help production and income, but high interest or poor terms can create debt traps.
Globalisation and consumers
Study the role of multinational companies, foreign trade, investment, technology, and liberalisation in connecting markets.
Consumer rights answers should mention safety, information, choice, representation, redressal, and consumer awareness.
Quick practice
- Explain why banks keep only a small portion of deposits as cash.
- Compare formal and informal sources of credit.
- Write four consumer rights with one example each.
