In this study, optimal transparency is examined in terms of monetary policy. Since about the last two decades, more emphasis has been placed on implementations of the monetary policy transparency for the success of the inflation targeting regime adopted by many countries. It is considered that transparency will be beneficial, such as the ability of central banks to make better predictions of economic units and to increase the credibility and persuasion power of the central bank. It is assumed that practices in this context will produce better results for the effectiveness of the monetary policy, but there is not always an expected outcome for an increase in the level of transparency. With this study, the negative effects of high transparency are put forth and what the optimal level of transparency should be is dealt with. In addition, the development of the central bank of the republic of Turkey in the context of transparency is stated.
