## About

Addis Fortune has one subject: money. Ethiopia's oldest English business weekly reports the birr's slide, IMF conditions and bank-board reshuffles with a technocrat's patience, and editorialises for private enterprise in a state that still runs much of the economy. Its market gospel now echoes the government's own reform program, so the country's most pro-business paper and its reforming administration read, this year, from a surprisingly similar script.

## Profile

- **Funding:** Advertising, print sales and business-data products
- **Focus areas:** Ethiopian business, macroeconomics, banking, government economic policy, IMF reform, private sector


## What the position means

TOLD classifies what an outlet publishes over time, based on ownership, funding
and focus. It describes a pattern; it is not a rating of quality and not a
ranking. Nothing in TOLD sorts, hides or promotes a source by its position.
State-aligned and partisan outlets are in the catalogue on purpose, labelled.
