Decades of strife, politics, and controversies marked by various incidents
In the world of finance, adaptability and resilience are key to survival. This rings true for Börse Online, a German financial magazine that is marking its 35th anniversary this year. Founded during a tumultuous period in the stock market, Börse Online has weathered numerous crashes and scandals, earning a reputation for its unwavering commitment to providing timely and reliable financial news.
The magazine's inception came on November 6, 1987, just days after the infamous Black Monday, when the Dow Jones Index plummeted by 22.9 percent, marking the largest single-day percentage loss since World War II. Despite the bleak outlook, the founders of Börse Online held fast to their motto: "Keep your eyes on the prize."
Throughout its history, Börse Online has faced numerous challenges. In the first months after the turn of the millennium, balance sheet scandals were rife, and the magazine played a crucial role in exposing fraudulent activities, such as the case involving the alleged telematics specialist Comroad, which was found to have fabricated turnover.
In 2013, Dr. Frank-B. Werner took over as publisher, bringing with him a wealth of experience from his previous role as a member of the editorial board in 1988. Under Werner's leadership, the magazine continued to adapt and innovate, integrating digital platforms and AI-driven content to reach a wider audience.
The success of Börse Online is attributed to the trust of its readers, who rely on the magazine for accurate and unbiased reporting during uncertain times. This trust has been tested time and time again, as the magazine has navigated through market crashes and scandals with composure.
Recently, Bernd Förtsch, founder and CEO of the Borsemedien AG, expressed interest in buying Börse Online when its current publisher, Werner, wanted to hand over the reins in 2021. However, the stock market indices started to decline shortly after Förtsch's interest, leading to a pause in negotiations.
Despite the current bear market, the editorial team at Börse Online remains optimistic. They believe that this period will pass, just as others have in the past. As they look to the future, they continue to uphold their founding motto, keeping their eyes firmly on the prize.
To celebrate its 35th anniversary, Börse Online is offering a 35% discount on all digital subscriptions until November 9. Whether you're a seasoned investor or just starting out, Börse Online provides the insights and analysis you need to navigate the ever-changing world of finance.
In the realm of personal-finance, Börse Online maintains its steadfast resilience, offering valuable investing insights to both seasoned experts and beginners alike. The magazine's unwavering commitment to providing timely and reliable financial news, gained through navigating numerous market crashes and scandals, is a testament to its groundbreaking role in the business world.
