Throughout the most challenging times, the Financial Times has gone from strength to strength in delivering essential global coverage and insights on today’s biggest news stories.
For the sixth consecutive year, the FT has been named the leading European business publication by the Global Business Influencers survey (GBI) from Ipsos. The 2021 survey of business leaders and senior executives found that the FT reaches 46.4% of respondents across Europe with its print and digital content. Specifically, the survey results show that the FT is the leading business publication in the region for reaching those in C-suite, high net worth and IT decision maker categories.
We are delighted with yet another brilliant result for the FT. As one of the world’s leading business news organisations, we pride ourselves on providing quality journalism and remain committed to our values of authority, integrity and accuracy.

Global themes the FT is covering in-depth that have far-reaching implications for subscribers include the run-up in global energy costs. The staggering gas price rises are causing concerns for businesses across all regions. Through reading the FT, subscribers can stay on top of the story as it develops further and plan for how they can mitigate the potential risks.
The COP26 conference in Glasgow is also high on the agenda for political and business leaders in Europe right now. In the video below, FT environment correspondent Leslie Hook explores how COP26 aims to review the progress on current climate change action and how to move forward.
FT Climate Capital has already established itself as the go-to destination for subscribers looking to understand the impact of climate change across politics, business and finance. The ability of the FT to connect the climate story across regions and industry verticals will continue to offer readers valuable insights well beyond November's conference.
Arming readers with analysis and insight
Alongside covering the world’s biggest news stories, the FT is a business tool that equips its subscribers with in-depth analysis and a view of potential risks and opportunities that might be appearing on the horizon.
