In the current climate, I thought these glossaries from central banks and a couple of other sources might be of use…
I’ve excluded those with annoying or inefficient interfaces, and those that don’t contain a great deal of information.
By the way, if you’re wondering, the picture on the right is the central bank in Oujda, Morocco.
