Established in 1991, IBS Journal is the definitive independent source of news and analysis relating to financial technology.

We talk to banking systems and financial technology users about their strategies and experiences; we drill down into the activities and plans of the suppliers; and we ensure that our readers are kept fully informed on all of the industry events and trends.

We cover what is really going on - the good, the bad, the lessons, the mistakes and the masterstrokes. Every word is written by our journalists - we do not take contributed articles. Our coverage is global, across all areas of banking and finance, including retail, corporate, wholesale, private/wealth management, securities, derivatives and trade finance.

Each issue provides comprehensive in-depth, investigative news; informative and well researched articles; product and financial analysis; case studies; system selections and go-lives; interviews and profiles; and the annual IBS Sales League Table.

The undisputed authority in this sector, IBS Journal offers a unique independent perspective on financial technology.

IBS Journal celebrated its best year ever for new subscriptions in 2012

Despite the prevailing market gloom, 2012 has been the best year in IBS Journal's 20 year history for new subscriptions. More and more readers are drawn to our unique independent stance and in-depth research into every story before it is published.

At IBS we prefer to let the quality of our content speak for itself.
