Haymarket enters into strategic partnership to further develop Regulation Asia

Hong Kong, China/Singapore, December 2, 2019: Haymarket Media and inAsia Media have entered into a strategic collaboration agreement to accelerate the pace of development of products and services for their clients and audiences in the financial industry.

The partnership will enable inAsia Media's leading regulatory news service Regulation Asia to expand on its existing platform to launch a series of events across the region, boost its research capabilities, and provide additional bespoke services to existing clients. At the same time the finance division of Haymarket Media will benefit from access to regulatory content for its audience of financial professionals.

There are clear domain areas of common interest across the two financial publishers, with a demand from readers of Haymarket's market leading publications FinanceAsia, AsianInvestor, and CorporateTreasurer for comprehensive regulatory news. Through this partnership, both can look to strengthen their editorial expertise with the goal of providing their respective audiences with deeper coverage on critical issues.

Brad Maclean, CEO and Co-founder of the inAsia Media said: "This strategic collaboration gives our business the opportunity to leverage Haymarket's operational strength and allows Regulation Asia to focus on expanding the breadth and depth of its coverage and further develop its suite of products and services."

"We will also look at opportunities for further editorial collaboration across existing and emerging areas that are impacting financial markets across the Asia region."

David Newton, Head of Haymarket Financial Media and Haymarket's Finance Director, Asia, said: "We see opportunities in several areas where our brands operate and, by partnering with a nimble business such as Regulation Asia, we believe we can bring new services to our clients and audiences more quickly than by working alone".

"It's an exciting time to be partnering with Regulation Asia and we look forward to great success with our two companies working together in a long-term relationship."
