The Australian Financial Review
The Australian Financial Review is a leading business and finance newspaper in Australia.
Fairfax Media publishes it in a compact format six days a week, Monday to Saturday.
In August 1951, the Financial Review was started as a weekly newspaper. In October 1961 it became bi-weekly and became a daily publication in 1963. In February 1995, The Australian Financial Review Magazine was introduced, followed shortly by a website launch in June of the same year.
Since the 1970s, the Financial Review has been associated with economic liberalism in Australia, driving a consistent editorial line favouring small government, deregulation, privatisation, lower taxes and trade liberalisation. However, the opinion columns incorporate a wider range of views.
The Financial Review is informally referred to as the Fin or the Fin Review.
It has a range of satellite publications including Financial Review Smart Investor, Financial Review MIS, Financial Review Asset and Financial Review CFO.
Two inserted monthly magazines come with the newspaper: the Financial Review Magazine and Financial Review BOSS.
It acquired the New Zealand-based Independent Business Weekly in 2006 and renamed it the Independent Financial Review, operating the paper until it closed down in the face of stiff competition on 1 July, 2010. [1]
