Investors Chronicle magazine has been providing private investors with weekly stock market analysis for even longer - since 1860, to be precise. This makes it one of the oldest magazines in the world.

It started life in 1860 as the weekly Money Market Review. In 1914, it merged with the Investors Chronicle and Journal of Finance, started in the 1890s. Then in 1928, publication of the amalgamated title was taken over by Brendan Bracken - the man behind the modern Financial Times. In 1967, Investors Chronicle merged again, this time with the Stock Exchange Gazette. And in 1978, it re-established its connection with the Financial Times, by becoming part of the FT Group. Its has been part of the group ever since, and is now published by FT Business, the financial magazines division of FT Group, which is owned by Pearson plc.

Over the years, the magazine has been home to some of the leading figures in financial journalism. Harold Wincott, considered by many the greatest Investors Chronicle editor, ran the magazine for 21 years. Andreas Whittam-Smith edited the magazine from 1970 to 1977, before going on to found The Independent newspaper. Gillian O'Connor, Investors Chronicle's first woman editor, went on to a career with the Financial Times. Today, Investors Chronicle is edited by Matthew Vincent and the website is run by Jonathan Eley and Charl Porter.
