In their own words
The Financial Times provides essential news and analysis to ambitious individuals and organisations around the world. With journalists based across 40 countries, the FT offers an international perspective on the economic, financial, political and business developments shaping markets and organisations worldwide. Its journalism combines global reach with specialist expertise across industries, economies and financial markets.
Alongside the Financial Times, the wider FT Group includes specialist publications and services serving professional audiences in key sectors. Among these is fDi Intelligence, which focuses on foreign direct investment and economic development. Its Germany Report 2026, published in the August–October 2026 edition, examines foreign investment across Germany’s 16 federal states and provides insight into the sectors, companies and international investment trends shaping the country’s economy.
Germany and the United Kingdom are two important markets for the Financial Times and form part of its wider coverage of European and global business, investment and economic developments.
The German British Business Summit 2026 provides a platform for many of these themes, bringing together senior representatives from business, government and public institutions to discuss developments affecting the economic relationship between Germany and the United Kingdom.
