Print overview
Since beginning as a weekly in 1951, The Australian Financial Review has set the agenda in analysing and charting the business life of the nation. In 2014, it celebrated 50 years as Australia’s first national daily business paper.
But heritage is only half the story. The paper is also known as a facilitator of progress.
The Financial Review is aligned with change-makers. From fresh winds in the leadership pipeline to twists in the budget performance, readers count on our editors, journalists and photographers to provide accurate and intelligent news that’s ahead of the curve. Clear content sections help readers and advertisers get what they want – global business dynamics in the World pages, wealth drivers in Companies and Markets, canny business insights in Chanticleer, and multiple specialist sections throughout the week.
Throughout the year, signature wraparound editions give readers prescient insights into financial calendar milestones, and advertisers a niche platform for high profile messaging. Read about our Budget Wrap, Economic Outlook, Executive Salaries and other wraps in the AFR Media Kit.
On Fridays and weekends, the nation’s biggest business and finance newsroom transforms into the worldly AFR Weekend, reflecting its readers’ worldliness. These readers are the sharp, stylish men and women others admire; the decathletes of the corporate world, all-rounders in their spheres. On weekends, they seek out our Smart Investor Weekend lift out on personal finance, Perspective section for the big issues of the week, and the Weekend Fin for ideas, arts and other passions.
The Financial Review also produces a series of newspaper-inserted magazines with sophisticated opportunities for targeted advertiser messaging.
