TVB Finance & Information Channel (formerly TVB Finance Channel, Chinese: 無綫財經·資訊台) is a 24-hour non-stop Cantonese finance information channel based in Hong Kong and operated by TVB.[1][2] The channel provides financial and monetary information, and also different documentaries. It is currently the only finance & information channel in Hong Kong.

Background

In August 15, 2017, TVB launched TVB Finance Channel as a replacement of TVB J5, a television channel formerly called TVB HD Jade.[3][4] Other than showing self-produced programmes made by TVB News, the channel will also show acquired documentaries, Mandarin news and live broadcast of major sports events.

In January 20, 2018, the channel was officially renamed and rebranded as TVB Finance & Information Channel. The purpose is to justify its channel usage – a channel that provides both financial but also informative programmes and shows.

In 13 April, 2020, Mandarin news moved back to TVB Pearl.
