The Financial Times is joining the September format shake-up in the
national press with the launch of a 16- page tabloid section in Weekend
FT this Saturday, and new enterprise pages.
The tabloid will be a
new personal finance section, FT Money. In full colour, it will contain
news, views and interviews from the world of personal finance and
investment.
The same weekend will see the introduction of the
Enterprise page to the Companies and Markets section of the newspaper.
The main article will be called “Minding Your Own Business”
and will focus on a company and how it can overcome its business problems.
