The Wirtschaftsblatt (spelling: WirtschaftsBlatt ) was a supraregional Austrian daily newspaper with a focus on economics .

history

The Wirtschaftsblatt first appeared in October 1995. Jens Tschebull was editor. It had specialized in the areas of economics and economic policy , companies and markets , stock exchanges and investments and was, according to its own statements, the only special-interest newspaper of its kind in Austria. The newspaper was published every trading day from Monday to Friday and was designed by around 50 specialist journalists and 30 employees working in the production of the newspaper.

On August 16, 2016, the Styria Media Group announced that the business paper would appear for the last time on September 2, 2016. Thanks to restructuring and savings, it has been possible in recent years to significantly reduce the economic newspaper's losses while maintaining the quality of the newspaper. However, the costs cannot be refinanced from the market in the future either.

The last print edition appeared on September 2, 2016. On October 28, 2016 the online portal Wirtschaftsblatt.at was also discontinued.
