2   A premium subscription to The Informed Executive gives your company the right to quality, objective, analysis
   
   

The publishers of The Informed Executive developed a method of funding magazine titles which depends neither on readers’ subscriptions nor on advertising. Under this business model, revenues are generated by organisations which commit a payment before the magazine’s editorial team research an editorial analysis of their business.

The fact that this sum is paid over before the research begins ensures the editorial independence and objectivity of the piece. By way of quality assurance, the company about which the piece is being written is invited to check the draft for factual accuracy, though editorial opinion must always remain that of the publishers.

In the case of IEX, the fees are paid by the Premium Subscribers – whose annual subscription entitles them to at least one in-depth editorial analysis. That subscription also entitles those organisations to a range of additional benefits, which are detailed below.

Readers are encouraged to draw down a permanent copy of any feature in PDF format for their own retention and private use.
