Singapore – Bloomberg Television, in partnership with CIMB Group, has announced the premiere of ASEAN Report, a weekly news segment capturing trends and developments across Southeast Asia’s diverse financial, economic and political landscape.
Exclusively sponsored by CIMB Group, ASEAN Report debuts January 25, and will be hosted by Bloomberg TV’s ASEAN news correspondent and anchor Haslinda Amin who has been covering the region for a decade. The programme segment will feature top ASEAN trend stories and interviews with newsmakers including Jose Camacho, Managing Director and Vice Chairman of Credit Suisse Asia Pacific and former Secretary of Finance in the Philippines, and Charamporn Jotikasthira, President of The Stock Exchange of Thailand.
“With greater collaboration and consultation across the 10 ASEAN markets to create a 600 million-strong region that is growing in global influence, Bloomberg TV believes the time is right for a dedicated ASEAN series,” said Parry Ravindranathan, Head of Bloomberg Television for Asia-Pacific.
ASEAN Report features every Friday as part of On the Move, the daily morning programme that coverers market openings and breaking news across Asia. The launch of ASEAN Report reinforces Bloomberg Television’s momentum and investment in ASEAN with the recent partnership with Idea Group to launch BTV Indonesia, its new state-of-the-art broadcast studio in Singapore, and new local content driven from the region.
