President's Message
Media in Nepal has witnessed an exponential growth in recent years. Expansion of business
activities and internet services and increased access of people to the new media has also
propelled the development of business media and journalism. Currently, Nepal has two
broadsheet business dailies, two business television channels, about a dozen large and small
business magazines in English and Nepali languages, a couple of weeklies published from the
Kathmandu Valley and other districts, and about one and a half dozens of economic news portals.
At the same time, almost all broadsheet dailies, radio stations and TV channels have special
space and segment for business and financial news while broadcast media also have talk shows
focused on economic issues as well. Hundreds of journalists are involved in these media as an
entrepreneurs, editors and working journalists.
Nepalese Association of Financial Journalists (NAFIJ) is a representative organization of all
business and financial journalists in Nepal. But it is currently more centred in the Kathmandu
Valley and aims to expand its base to other economic centres across the country as well. More
than 200 economic journalists are the members of NAFIJ while many other are indirectly
connected and working with us.
