The Financial Times is expanding its package of online features for paying subscribers in an attempt to increase the number of paying users of its website.
Premium subscribers, who currently pay £3.99 a week for an annual subscription, will now receive a monthly email newsletter from editor Lionel Barber; and a weekly email called FT Newsmine, focusing on "global market-related data, trends and observations".
The site's premium subscribers can read all articles and content on FT.com, as part of the site's tiered access model , which includes different access options to non-paying registered users and for standard and premium subscribers.
These users will also have access to an exclusive digital replica edition of the paper, a release said.
FT.com now has 121,000 paying digital subscribers, the press release said. In March the site had 109,609 paying subscribers and 966,000 registered users by the end of 2008.
