Axel Springer Switzerland: Business titles to be centralized
The business titles of Axel Springer Switzerland and the trade journals are moving closer together. The titles will be centralized in terms of production, layout and proofreading. In addition, the editorial teams will work more closely together.
The business titles of Axel Springer Switzerland - Bilanz, Handelszeitung, Stocks - and the trade journals are moving closer together. The titles will be centralized in terms of production, layout and proofreading, as CEO Ralph Büchi told the Sonntag newspaper. Although an overall editorial team is out of the question, the editorial teams will work more closely together. This mainly affects the Invest section, which will be completely merged under the management of current Bilanz editor Hansjörg Ryser. Three jobs are expected to be cut by the end of the year as part of this project.
Axel Springer Switzerland had a record year in 2008. According to Büchi, the advertising slump in the business titles occurred exactly at the turn of the year 2009 and amounted to 30 to 40 percent. In the financial sector, advertising fell by as much as 50 percent.
