vedomosty

Vedomosti is a Russian business daily newspaper. Founded in 1999, it is one of Russia's leading financial and business publications. The newspaper is known for its in-depth reporting on economic and political news, as well as its analysis of market trends. Vedomosti's editorial stance is generally considered liberal and pro-business.

The newspaper was originally a joint venture between the Financial Times, The Wall Street Journal, and a Russian publishing house. In 2015, the Financial Times and The Wall Street Journal sold their stakes, and Vedomosti became fully owned by Russian shareholders. This change in ownership has been a subject of discussion regarding potential editorial independence.

Vedomosti is published in print and also has a significant online presence. Its readership primarily consists of business professionals, government officials, and academics. The publication has won numerous awards for its journalism. Despite facing economic challenges common to the print media industry globally, Vedomosti continues to be a significant source of business news and analysis within Russia. Its reporting often touches on issues of corporate governance, investment, and economic policy.
