OUR MISSION

 

Taking on “Economic Confidential”

A brainchild of seasoned journalists and writers who have watched and reported the local economic and financial scene for years, the Economic Confidential is more in tune with our editorial slant and perspective as well as current trends, which generally tilt towards mass subscription and online publishing.

 

In the past, we came out as FAAC News and Nigeria Economic Outlook. We had intended to be a regular publication covering the usual mundane economic issues, simplifying them as much as possible and selling on the stands. But our patrons have a better idea. While they appreciate our initial concept, they would rather we took to modern journalistic trends which favour what can roughly be described as intelligence gathering and dissemination. Since this is more or less a virgin area in our clime, we have bought into the idea. And so since January 2007we have been publishing ECONOMIC CONFIDENTIAL monthly, a name which captures more, the essence of the new concept. Our modus operandi is to peep into the behind-the-scene of economic issues, analyse them critically as may never be done in any regular publication and make our report available to an identified, select clientele, largely by subscription.

 

Economic Confidential has consistently reported and analyzed in-depth economic issues bringing out their wide implications and imports for general readership. More especially, we ensure that our facts and figures are infallible and sacrosanct to earn your trust.

 

We are under no illusion that the challenge of pioneering this somewhat new brand of journalism would be easy. Accordingly, we have taken our time to do our homework sufficiently by laying the infrastructure that will see us through. We can pledge therefore that we will fulfill your expectations – making available to you, the behind-the-scene news that surrounds every economic issue we cover.

 

In fact through the accessibility of our publication and information we post on our website www.economicconfidential.com national dailies and online journals/forums have cause to excerpt stories from our exclusive facts and figures especially on Remuneration Packages, Revenue Formula, Exclusive Interviews, monthly summary of Federal Allocation, analysis of Monetary and Fiscal issues etc.

 

Our desire is to constantly beam our searchlight on the economic and financial sector, focusing on the various kaleidoscope and indicators that measure the pulse of the economy and bringing these to our readers monthly. We undertake and employ the best tradition of journalism: objectivity, accuracy and fairness.

 

In a way, you can assume that you have commissioned us to launch inquiries into every economic issue and make the findings available to you in our monthly publication. We invite you to stay with us.
