Initially focused on the global financial and economic issues that were to become the predominant forces of the twentieth century, the Financial Times expanded coverage in the postwar years, reporting on topics such as industry, energy, and international politics. In more recent decades, coverage of management, personal finance, and the arts have been added. Today, with more full-time foreign correspondents than any other European newspaper, a wider readership internationally than in the UK, worldwide circulation of nearly 500,000, and estimated global readership of more than 1.9 million people, the Financial Times is recognized as the complete newspaper for the world of business throughout the world [Source: FT Average Daily Global Audience (ADGA), May 2010].

FEATURED TESTIMONIAL
“Studying what happened in the past is a valuable tool for politicians, researchers, and people throughout finance and business as they try to make sense of what is happening and plan for future recovery. . . . This is where newspapers like the Financial Times can help. It has charted finance and business news around the world since its launch in 1888. Being a daily newspaper, it also provides context, such as who were the prime ministers and presidents at the time, as well as any conflicts, business scandals and political uncertainties.”
