In today’s interconnected financial ecosystem, information spreads faster than capital. Yet not all information is true. Rumors, deepfakes, and viral misinformation can destabilize markets within minutes, eroding trust in institutions and amplifying systemic risks.
Our latest deep-dive report, The Value of Truth: Information Integrity in Global Finance, examines how information integrity has become a first-order concern for policymakers, central banks, regulators, and financial institutions.
The report explores:
- Crisis amplification through misinformation — from sovereign debt rumors to deepfake scandals
- Case studies of rapid verification success — when timely interventions prevented financial panic
- Technological tools for truth-seeking — AI verification, digital forensics, and cross-platform monitoring
- Policy and governance frameworks — strengthening institutional resilience in an age of synthetic content
By combining analytical depth with real-world cases, the study highlights both the risks of unchecked disinformation and the opportunities for innovation in verification, transparency, and trust-building.
At Bank & Finance, we believe that safeguarding truth is central to safeguarding stability. This report offers actionable insights for finance ministries, central banks, regulators, development banks, and private institutions navigating this new information frontier.
