InvestmentNews, the trusted resource for financial professionals and investment advisers, now has a bold new look and a better user experience that is intentionally aligned to educate, inform and engage an ever-growing and more sophisticated audience of financial services firms. This is the first major rebrand since the publication was founded in 1998.
“The new design elevates the user experience,” said Christine Shaw, CEO of InvestmentNews. “The financial services industry is evolving and so are we. InvestmentNews is, as always, committed to excellence and bringing not only breaking news but fair and accurate reporting to our editorial content.”
In early 2020, InvestmentNews pivoted to a premium magazine size, and revamped the user experience on its website. The enhanced technology stack will provide improved insights and better engagement. The editorial focus will continue to be on core topics for financial professionals: top news, industry coverage, financial planning, practice management, compliance and regulation, investments including ESG, diversity and inclusion, philanthropic initiatives and more.
NEW MANAGEMENT TEAM
In addition to the changes across the brand, InvestmentNews is now in the process of introducing new members to its management team in addition to Josh Brous, vice president of events; George Ortiz, director of audience engagement; and Matt Ackermann, director of multimedia:
• Christine Shaw, Chief Executive Officer
• George Moriarty, Chief Content Officer
• Scott Miller, Chief Revenue Officer
• Katie Downey, Marketing Director, Brand & Products
• Sasha Burgansky, Marketing Director, Events
InvestmentNews has also added new members across the organization in sales, research, audience and editorial, including Paul Curcio, managing editor, and Sean Allocca, deputy managing editor.
“The InvestmentNews brand and reputation stand out in the field, and I look forward to continuing the great work that’s been done,” George Moriarty, chief content officer, wrote in his editor’s note in the January premium magazine issue.
As “The Trusted Resource for Financial Advisers,” InvestmentNews will continue to evolve the brand throughout 2020 across all platforms – including additional site enhancements to demonstrate a deep understanding of the financial services industry. InvestmentNews will also soon be announcing a growing suite of events and groundbreaking research.
