The Financial Times isn’t just a salmon pink-coloured newspaper with a large name at the top of it. It leads in financial news and information and has done so for a long time. It was founded in 1888 by two gentleman, James Sheridan and Horatio Bottomley, the latter of which fell into financial disrepute later on.

It’s reached our most important decision makers and financiers for over a century. Its headline features and news stories cover a wide base of operations. In today’s world there’s a lot more to cover but not necessarily many more innovations.
There are readers that have barely moved on from old ways and are still hugely successful in part because of its knowledgeable insight. It proves that financial news lasts in the long run and many readers are glad that their old title has stuck with them. If it can stick it out in the next raft of inventions is left to be seen.
