bne IntelliNews, previously known as Business News Europe, is a news wire agency and media company focusing on global emerging markets. The company's name is stylized in all lower-case letters as "bne" and "IntelliNews" in its publications. The company primarily offers daily news through its flagship website, but also publishes a bne IntelliNews magazine (previously called Business News Europe), a monthly English-language magazine. Bne IntelliNews work is often translated and also syndicated to several other publications and languages across Europe, Asia and the Americas, being a partner news agency to several companies including Bloomberg Terminal, LexisNexis, and Reuters.
Its reporting was classified by Media Bias/Fact Check as "mostly factual", with "high credibility", and its analysis as "center to slightly right-leaning". [1]
The new agency is headquartered in Berlin, London and Tallinn. The company's staff are based in multiple locations throughout the magazine's geographic area of coverage. The news agency has bureaus in several regions, including the Caucasus, Central and Eastern Europe, Iran, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Turkey, Egypt, South Africa, Brazil, Colombia, Argentina and Afghanistan.

Its founder, Ben Aris, had been covering Russia as a reporter since 1993. [2] bne IntelliNews combines bne Media, the publisher of bne magazine founded in 2006, and Emerging Markets Direct, the parent publisher of the IntelliNews news and views founded in 1998. Aris founded bne Media after leaving The Guardian due to boredom. [2] Both companies were merged in 2014 by Jerome Booth's New Sparta Ltd. In 2016, following the departure of Booth, bne IntelliNews became independently owned and operated, with Ben Aris as the controlling stakeholder. [4]
