HONG KONG, CHINA/SINGAPORE
- Media OutReach - 2 December 2019 – Haymarket Media and inAsia
Media have entered into a strategic collaboration agreement to accelerate the
pace of development of products and services for their clients and audiences in
the financial industry.

 

The
partnership will enable inAsia Media’s leading regulatory news service Regulation
Asia to expand on its existing platform to launch a series of events across
the region, boost its research capabilities, and provide additional bespoke
services to existing clients. At the same time the finance division of
Haymarket Media will benefit from access to regulatory content for its audience
of financial professionals.

 

There
are clear domain areas of common interest across the two financial publishers,
with a demand from readers of Haymarket’s market leading publications FinanceAsia,
AsianInvestor, and CorporateTreasurer for comprehensive regulatory
news. Through this partnership, both can look to strengthen their editorial
expertise with the goal of providing their respective audiences with deeper
coverage on critical issues.

 

Brad
Maclean, CEO and Co-founder of the inAsia Media
said: “This strategic collaboration gives our business the opportunity
to leverage Haymarket’s operational strength and allows Regulation
Asia to focus on expanding the breadth and depth of its coverage and further
develop its suite of products and services.” 

 

“We
will also look at opportunities for further editorial collaboration across
existing and emerging areas that are impacting financial
markets across the Asia region.” 

 

David
Newton, Head of Haymarket Financial Media and Haymarket’s Finance Director,
Asia, said: “We see opportunities in several areas where our brands operate
and, by partnering with a nimble business such as Regulation Asia, we
believe we can bring new services to our clients and audiences more quickly
than by working alone”.

 

“It’s
an exciting time to be partnering with Regulation Asia and we look
forward to great success with our two companies working together in a long-term
relationship.”
