FT customers with a corporate licence will be able to access Financial Times journalism via the Bloomberg Professional service, starting this week. The new service will be available to more than 295,000 Bloomberg subscribers.
The Financial Times multi-platform licences allow professionals to access FT journalism in the most convenient way for their work and over 900 corporate customers have already purchased rights to read FT journalism via a number of third party technology platforms.
Customers of the Bloomberg Professional service that do not have an FT licence will see headlines of FT articles that link through to FT.com. Registered users of FT.com can access up to 10 articles per month at no cost. Unlimited access to FT articles requires a premium or corporate subscription.
Caspar de Bono, Managing Director B2B at the Financial Times said: "This agreement opens up another large and hugely significant channel to the FT ... The FT aims to make its content available wherever our customers choose to access it, whether that's in print, on a mobile or via the Bloomberg Professional service."
