A South African edition of MoneyWeek was launched in June 2007, initially on a subscription basis, with newsstand availability beginning in 2008.[6] In September 2008, MoneyWeek France, a French language edition of MoneyWeek, published in Paris, was launched.[7] It ceased publishing in October 2011.[8]
MoneyWeek supported Leave in the UK's 2016 EU Referendum.
In 2017, MoneyWeek was re-acquired by Dennis Publishing,[9] joining Dennis’ Current Affairs division.[10] [11] In 2020, MoneyWeek became part of Future Plc when it purchased Dennis Publishing. [12]
