The M2 money supply in the United Kingdom increased rapidly between 2000 and 2023, with a particularly sharp increase in 2020 as a result of the quantitative easing in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The rising tendency continued between 2021 and 2022, and by December 2022, the M2 money supply in the UK exceeded three trillion British pounds. 2023 marked the first year in over a decade that the M2 money supply declined, but it remained above three trillion British pounds.
