Il Sole 24 Ore (Italian pronunciation: [il ˈsoːle ventiˌkwatˈtroːre]) is an Italian national daily business newspaper owned by Confindustria, the Italian employers' federation.

History and profile

Il Sole 24 Ore was first published on 9 November 1965 as a merger between Il Sole ("the sun"), founded in 1865,[1] and 24 Ore ("24 hours"), founded in 1933.[2] The latter was established by young economists, including Ferdinando di Fenizio, Libero Lenti and Roberto Tremelloni, on 15 February 1933.[3] The owner of Il Sole 24 Ore is Confindustria.[2][4][5]

Il Sole 24 Ore has its headquarters in Milan[6] and is published in broadsheet format.[7] The paper reports on business, politics, developments in commercial and labour law, corporate news and features. Extensive share and financial product listings are provided in its daily supplement, Finanza e Mercati.

Weekly supplements include:

  • Domenica (Sunday): art, literature, philosophy, theatre, cinema, book reviews, and related news;
  • Plus24 (Saturday): family savings, market analysis, real estate market news, and other private investment topics;
  • Nòva 24 (Sunday): science and technology.

Irregular supplements are also produced with a focus on a specific issue such as a particular business sector.
