Information made available to the public must be TIMELY, ACCURATE, and COMPREHENSIVE and every citizen must be sufficiently literate and motivated to access and make use of this information. This must be the case if we are to expand our range of choices, and make suitable decisions involving our own welfare.
Central Banks, and the ECCB is no exception, have the responsibility, given their position in the economic system, to provide economic and financial information of the highest quality so that their governments, business enterprises, trade unions and individuals can make well-informed decisions, which can facilitate economic growth and socio-economic development.
