Chief Economists magazine Social Media Advisory

The Voice of Global Economic Leadership

ChiefEconomists.com uses social media to expand the reach of our research, amplify economic insights, and promote dialogue among global economists, policymakers, and investors. All editors, researchers, and contributors must treat social platforms as professional extensions of their role.

1. Guard Integrity

Posts on personal accounts can reflect on ChiefEconomists.com. Avoid statements that compromise credibility, neutrality, or research integrity.

2. Professionalism Online = Professionalism Offline

If a comment would be inappropriate in a policy roundtable, academic seminar, or press interview, it is not appropriate online.

3. Civility and Respect

Maintain civility. Avoid impulsive remarks or ad hominem attacks against individuals, organizations, or governments.

4. Reject Bias and Hate

Posts that reflect bias, discriminatory attitudes, or hate speech undermine both personal and institutional credibility. They will not be tolerated.

5. Elevate the Profession

Used responsibly, social media can broaden the audience for serious economic thought. Used recklessly, it can erode hard-earned professional standing.

Accountability: An internal review committee will address any reported breaches. ChiefEconomists.com reserves the right to limit association with individuals who disregard these guidelines.
