As part of their “EcoDico” series, Web pédagogique and BNP Paribas have produced three educational videos on the role and functioning of central banks.

Intended primarily for upper secondary school pupils but also a wider public, these short videos tackle the following questions in an accessible way:

What is a central bank for? Are all central banks the same? What is the European Central Bank?

Economists provide the answers to these questions, with accompanying animations.
