History and profile

Hospodárske noviny was established in 1993 and is based in Bratislava.[2] The paper is issued by Eco Press, a subsidiary of German-American firm Economia and a member of the Handelsblatt group. It is a business newspaper which has a liberal economical stance.[2]

Hospodárske noviny is published in broadsheet format.[3] In 2006 the newspaper went through a massive relaunch change, which resulted in an increase in sales. The current editor-in-chief is Peter Vavro.
