The desks behind market.news
Six specialised editorial desks cover 8+ markets across 14 countries markets, 87 source feeds, and round-the-clock trading hours. Each desk is an AI-augmented system supervised by the editorial team โ combining the speed of synthesis at scale with structured quality control.
How market.news editorial works
Each desk is an AI-augmented editorial system. Stories are synthesised from monitored sources by Claude (Anthropic), reviewed by a second-pass quality reviewer, and published under the relevant desk's byline. The desk personas described here represent specialised coverage areas โ see our methodology and editorial standards for the full process. Found an error? Report it.

Why six desks?
Financial markets don't follow one calendar. Asian sessions open as the US closes; ECB and BoE move on different days from the Fed; commodities trade across all of them; crypto never sleeps. Six specialised desks let market.news cover stories with the right depth at the right time, rather than producing a single homogenised feed.
Each desk has a defined country and topic remit, monitors a curated set of source feeds for that beat, and applies category-specific quality rules during synthesis. This is why an HSBC capital-ratio story is written under Sarah Williams (Banking & Finance) and a PBOC rate move under James Chen (Greater China).
