Financial news titles

[Scoobyqueen]

I want to up my vocabulary specifically in the financial sector. What are the top 3-5 sources for financial news in China. I am thinking Financial Times, The Economist, Reuters and Bloomberg equivalent. Any recommendations?

This list isn't definitive, but off the top of my head these have been helpful to me.

1. 21世纪网
   
2. 财新网
   
3. 财经网
   
4. FT中文网

Scoobyqueen, you are sort of my hero/mind reader! I had the same 2013 goal (not posted however) for the Financial Sector. Good Question/Thread---Virtual High Five

On a somewhat related note, but covering a NARROWER scope, I (reluctantly) add world journal...only because I personally need to look at the Chinese terminology for American taxes/laws, financial products, etc...and well for some of us tax season is unfortunately upon us, so here. http://www.worldjour...com/2013taxinfo

Thanks for the suggestion.

I am thinking of changing jobs and I have seen one for investors relations requiring Mandarin. If I get an interview this would be my practice ground. I am not though into that dry stuff. I just want to see how far I get and what my market value is.

You've probably also considered Reuters' Chinese website http://cn.reuters.com/.

Reuters has a financial glossary in English and Chinese which I think is useful. The web address should be http://glossary.reuters.com.cn/ but that's not working for me at the moment: another way in is via http://glossary.reut...ail/word资产.html and then go half way down the page to the search box and A B C list of 词汇索引 links.

Let us know how you get on: I write about this stuff (in English) for my day job, would love to end up doing something Chinese-language with it at some stage.

Thanks Realmayo. I had considered Reuters. Each country has it is own news agency so dpa for Germany, AFP for France etc. I think there is only one in China which would Xinhua, I am right?

If you're doing investor relations, maybe reading the regulatory announcements from the exchanges? Might be able to filter by sector / etc, not sure.

I guess you have a smartphone, download the 财新网 application, it's really useful, everyday I read 2 or 3 short articles, it helps me a lot!

财新／财经 and their related magazines/news items are probably the best. You can also sort by most popular articles each day, most commented, etc, and in general I find the writing similar in formality as the Economist (i.e. pretty approachable, not too stuffy - granted you like the topic).
