        In order to control a capital inflow surge,
        a sterilized intervention operation:

        A.  
        decreases a country’s monetary base.

        B.   
        increases the level of short-term interest rates.

        C.  offsets
        the excess liquidity created by FX intervention activities.

            Yes, You are right. 

            C is correct. In a sterilized
            operation, the authorities of an emerging market country would sell domestic
            securities to the private sector to reduce the excess liquidity created by FX
            intervention activities.
