Founded in 1843 and headquartered in the UK, The Economist is a privately owned company with approximately 4,920 employees. Its primary business is newspaper publishing, focusing on current affairs publications.
The Economist Group's Lynn Forester de Rothschild explored the sale of a minority stake in the company, potentially marking the first ownership change in ten years. Separately, Economist Intelligence, part of The Economist Group, made available two data products, The Democracy Index and the Liveability Index, on Snowflake Marketplace. This arrangement may serve as a model for other publishers with similar data and analytics.
