The Reserve Bank of India became the world’s only major central bank to gain one million followers on Twitter, boosting efforts to foster financial literacy in a society that is traditionally under-banked and vulnerable to frauds.
The bank’s Twitter handle @RBI reached the million mark on Nov 22, Governor Shaktikanta Das said via a tweet. That’s up from about 892,000 followers it had in June, and compares with about 678,000 followers for the US Federal Reserve, a little over 591,000 for the European Central Bank and a tad above 317,000 for the Bank of England.
