Inspired by visits to converged newsroom initiatives in the US, new online city editor Philip Aldrick will be leading a drive to provide early morning, breaking-markets news like a wire service, increasing the amount of content unique to the website.

Telegraph chief executive Murdoch MacLennan and senior editorial staff visited newsrooms including the New York Times and Bloomberg recently.
