About Bloomberg

NEWS THAT MOVES MARKETS.

Since 1990, BLOOMBERG NEWS® has grown into one of the world's largest and most trusted information sources. Our mission is to put accuracy above all else while reporting news first, delivering it fastest and making Bloomberg the definitive source to readers, viewers and listeners by describing today's events in the context of tomorrow.


If it affects markets, BLOOMBERG NEWS will be there first, delivering in milliseconds the world's most accurate information on virtually every stock, bond, and economic indicator on the globe.


News Facts and Figures

BLOOMBERG NEWS is a real-time news service that provides definitive coverage of companies, markets, industries, economies and governments. Our mission is to make events transparent to readers in more than 160 countries, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.


BLOOMBERG NEWS was started in 1990 with a six-person editorial team. We went head-to-head with well-established news services, some more than a century old. Since then we have grown into one of the world's largest media companies by delivering fast, accurate, well-written news designed to help people make informed investment decisions. That's just the beginning. BLOOMBERG NEWS removes the jargon, drops the insiders' terminology, and translates complex subjects into easy-to-understand stories. We report on derivatives, legislation, financial statements and bonds so these topics are understood by anyone who can read a newspaper or watch television — not just investment professionals.


With more than 1,500 professionals in 145 bureaus, BLOOMBERG NEWS publishes over 6,000 stories on an average day, syndicating to over 450 newspapers worldwide with a combined circulation of 80 million people.

The BLOOMBERG PROFESSIONAL service maintains an archive of more than 15 million stories and multimedia reports. Our photo library comprises 290,000 images.
