Abstract: Search-theoretic models of monetary exchange are based on explicit descriptions
of the frictions that make money essential. However, tractable versions of these models
typically need strong assumptions that make them ill-suited for studying monetary policy. ...

The goal of this paper is to extend existing search-theoretic models of fiat money, which until
