Finweek was a South African weekly business magazine published in both English- and Afrikaans-language editions. It was one of the country's largest circulating business titles.[1] Competitors included fellow weekly Financial Mail.
Finweek was launched in September 2005, following the merger of Finance Week and Finansies & Tegniek, both established titles in their respective English- and Afrikaans-speaking markets. In the same month, the magazine merged with the financial website Finance24 to create Fin24.co.za, the country's most accessed financial portal.[2]
Finweeks content focused on business and investment issues, with a leaning towards investigative stories and columns. The primary audience was business executives and investors.
The magazine was owned by Media24 Magazines,[3] which is in turn owned by diversified media group Naspers (JSE: NPN, NASDAQ: NPSN).
