THE DIFFERENCE
EURO AREA's money stock is 98.6% larger than DENMARK's — $19.90T against $280.39B. At their current rates (4.7% and 2.8% a year) Euro Area doubles in 15.1Y and Denmark in 24.9Y.
⚠ NOT A WEALTH RANKING
"So the bigger number is the richer country?" No. Broad money counts deposits and currency outstanding, not wealth, not output and not purchasing power. A country can have a large money stock and a poor population, and the reverse. It is also not comparable to GDP, and the two series here are measured on different dates by different agencies.
