Exchange-Rate Policy and the Leaking Bucket

A figure labelled BoSS pours water into a leaking bucket beside a black-market sign — Artwork by Solongo. The cartoon depicts a central-bank policy pouring water into a bucket that leaks beside a sign marked “black market.”

The cartoon asks whether exchange-rate measures can achieve their intended effect while other channels drain away their impact. It is editorial satire expressing the artist’s view, not documentary evidence about a particular transaction or a measured finding about monetary policy.
