Does anybody know of a website where you can find the (combined) balance sheet of all or the major central banks, that is updated frequently?
Preferably in chart form, raw data would be fine too.  

BIS is the "central bank of central banks", you could start with their "Red Books":

I dont think it exists, but the central banks usually make the information quite available, at least the important ones. What they dont release is to who they give the money, but the amount they all do afaik.

I don't think so but it wouldn't make any difference. Central banks don't make more money from average consumers' spending habits.

Huh?  Why do you think I am talking about something like that?

Hi

Does anybody know of a website where you can find the (combined) balance sheet of all or the major central banks, that is updated frequently?
Preferably in chart form, raw data would be fine too.  

Something similar to the graph in this article:

I know you can go to the websites of the individual central banks and do the calculations, but honestly, that is quite a hassle.
