M1 processes the most fluid constituents of the money supply, as it includes cash and assets that can easily be converted to currency.
Qatar's average money supply (M2) continued to grow by 3.06 percent to USD138.3 billion compared to the third quarter. M2 grew by 4.34 percent in the final quarter of 2014 over the first quarter of 2014.
