Handelsblatt is the market and opinion leader in the field of business and financial information, laying a foundation on which successful decision-makers make successful decisions.
Like the German economy, Handelsblatt is European and international in its scope. The basic outlook of the newspaper is a liberal one. Handelsblatt has become a byword for reliable, objective, critical and up-to-date journalism. News and events are researched, analysed and placed in the appropriate, often complex context. Major importance is attached to providing background, informed commentary and in-depth analysis. The Handelsblatt credo: "All Facts, No Frills".
The benefits for you as an advertiser:
Handelsblatt is the leading German-language business and financial newspaper. The paper is published every trading day and is unmatched by any other medium thanks to its high coverage, above-average target group composition scores and superb cost efficiency when it comes to reaching decision-maker target groups. According to the LAE 2007 survey, 287,000 decision-makers read Handelsblatt every day, with self-employed entrepreneurs and management executives accounting for 88 percent of this figure.
But Handelsblatt is more than "just a newspaper". It accompanies readers throughout the day, around the clock and via all media channels, including text message services, the website at handelsblatt.com and blackberry services at pda.handelsblatt.com.
