business new europe (bne) was set up in 2006 by a group of journalists who have been covering emerging Europe for more than a decade. It remains the only English-language publication that covers all 30 of the countries of "new Europe" -- Central, Eastern and Southeast Europe, as well as the former Soviet Union.

We have found the best journalists in each of the countries of the region with getting on for 100 years of cumulative experience, who not only report on the progress each country makes as the process of convergence continues, but can draw on their experience and contacts to write forward-looking commentary and analysis of where each country is going; the idea is to provide pragmatic and actionable information for investors and companies working in or with the region that will help them promote their business.

bne covers business, economics, finance and politics in these dynamic new markets and while there is a fair amount of reporting by wires on the "what" of the story, there is almost no commentary on the "why", which is bne's core function.

In addition, bne acts as an "intelligent filter" consuming the mountains of research put out each day by investment banks, IFIs and think-tanks; bne reads all this research and republishes what we consider to be the best or most informative in a series of lists and newsletters distributed by email, allowing our readers to stay up to date on the debate. Find out 90% of what you need to know in 20% of the reading time.

Finally, bne not only reports the stories in each country, it reports on what the market is saying about the story. Sentiment remains as big a driver of these markets as the reality on the ground, and often the markets react contrary to what the fundamentals suggest is the most appropriate action, but bne reports on these developments too.

bne offers a variety of products that cover the region and if you register via the link on the home page, you can try all our products for a month for free.
