Why Central Banks Are Taking To Instagram
Central banks are trying to rebuild trust with younger generations by establishing a presence on social media, particularly Instagram, to counteract misinformation and promote their policies. They are using social media to post about the history and design of coins and banknotes, warn against scams, and promote their achievements, such as instant payment systems, in an effort to seem more accessible and relatable.
