Financial News Online

Financial News Online provides daily online financial news covering four channels, asset management, investment banking, private equity and trading & technology. Financial News Online was acquired by Dow Jones & Company, whose publications include The Wall Street Journal, in May 2007.

The homepage follows a newspaper style layout with the top financial news headlines and a synopsis of each story with a link to the full story for subscribers. The news archive is searchable by keywords, dates and sectors and is a useful tool for research or further information on financial news stories. There is also a job search tool linked to the sister website www.efinancialcareers.co.uk.

Sector specific information is provided within each channel with detailed reports and research papers available to download as a PDF. The week's events in each sector are covered in a single village page that makes easy reading and is one of the few resources available in full to non subscribers.

The website can be viewed in full from the four week free trial subscription. Subscribers receive a weekly newspaper and can tailor the website and email updates to their specific interests. The site offers one and two year subscriptions starting at £320.

Professionals and enthusiastic amateurs alike should find this a useful website.
