Frequently asked questions
Who issues the Israeli Shekel?+
The Israeli Shekel (ILS) is issued by Bank of Israel. As the monetary authority for Israel, it sets policy interest rates, manages foreign reserves, and controls the money supply.
What is the inflation rate of the Israeli Shekel?+
Latest available consumer price inflation for the Israeli Shekel: 3.07% YoY (2024). Source: World Bank annual series (FP.CPI.TOTL.ZG). Daily-refreshed historical chart on this page.
Has the Israeli Shekel been debased?+
Every fiat currency loses purchasing power over time as central banks expand the money supply. M2 has grown by approximately 119% over the past decade. Combined with cumulative inflation, this is the gap between ILS as accounting unit and ILS as a store of value.
Is the Israeli Shekel sound money?+
On the Money2069 0–100 sound-money scale, the Israeli Shekel currently scores 79.9. The score weights inflation volatility, 10-year money-supply growth, and 1-year FX stability. Higher = closer to sound. No fiat scores 100 because no fiat has zero issuance.
