CNN Business(formerlyCNN Money) is a financial news and information website, operated byCNN.The website was originally formed as a joint venture betweenCNN.comandTime Warner'sFortuneandMoneymagazines. Since the spin-off of Time Warner's publishing assets asTime Inc.(and their subsequent sale toMeredith Corporationand later, toIAC'sDotdash), the site has since operated as an affiliate ofCNN.

History[edit]

CNN Money launched in 2001, replacingCNNfn's website. Time Warner had also announced an intention to relaunch the CNNfn television network under the CNN Money moniker, but those plans were apparently scrapped.[1]

Prior to June 2014, the website was operated as a joint venture betweenCNNand two Time Warner-published business magazines;FortuneandMoney.In June 2014, Time Warner's publishing assets were spun-out asTime Inc.;as a result, all three properties launched separate web presences, and CNN Money introduced a new logo that removed thewordmarkofMoneymagazine from its branding. With the re-launch, CNN headJeff Zuckeralso promised increased synergies between the website and the CNN channel, such as branded segments and the re-branding of CNN's weekly financial showYour MoneyasCNNMoney.[2][3]

In October 2018, CNN re-launched the vertical asCNN Business;the new brand is focused on "digital transformation of business, and how it is disrupting every corner of the global economy". The relaunch came alongside the opening of a new San Francisco bureau. As with CNNMoney, it will be supported by branded segments on CNN television, as well as streaming content.[4]
