Which branch prints money?

Answer 1

In the United States, the branch of government responsible for printing money is the Department of the Treasury, specifically through the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (BEP). The Federal Reserve, which is the central bank of the U.S., regulates the money supply and makes decisions about monetary policy, but it does not physically print the money. Instead, the Federal Reserve issues currency that is then printed by the BEP under the authority of the Treasury.
