Launch of the HKMA’s Instagram Channel and Public Education Campaign on Protection of “Personal Digital Keys”

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority unveiled a new social media channel Instagram today (10 September) following the launch of its Facebook Page in 2018 to further enhance communication with members of the public.  The Instagram channel will use simple pictures and a light-hearted tone to share the HKMA’s latest information with the public.

Also launched today is a series of themed social media videos on Protection of Personal Digital Keys.  Mr Norman Chan, Chief Executive of the HKMA, took a starring role in the video.  The campaign reminds the public to safeguard their personal digital keys, including account login, personal information and one-time password, etc., when using digital financial services, to avoid suffering from loss of personal assets.

The public may watch the videos by visiting the HKMA website (https://www.hkma.gov.hk/eng/smart-consumers/personal-digital-keys/) and its social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram and YouTube).
