Correct Answer: Lower the bank rate and purchase of securities in the open market
 


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Lower the bank rate and purchase of securities in the open market

Lowering the bank rate refers to reducing the interest rate at which central banks lend to commercial banks. This action encourages borrowing and investment, stimulating economic activity. Additionally, the purchase of securities in the open market injects money into the economy, increasing liquidity and providing further support to spending.
