Bank of England chief economist Andy Haldane spoke on Friday in San Francisco ... which was my weekend anyway
Reuters reports:
- The use of gaming technology -- which allows millions of people to play interactive games such as World of Warcraft and Second Life -- could help central banks communicate with younger people who have proven hard to reach.
- "Globally, around half of young adults aged 18-24 play games online. It might be time for central banks to start playing them at their own game," Haldane said.
Haldane spoke on central banks communication, with the snappily title speech: A Little More Conversation A Little Less Action
I'm betting he thought titling his speech so so would get him a gig on ForexLive. OK, then Mr. H.
There was an early 2000s remix of this song which did well on the charts .... how could you go wrong?
