Market Update: ABC launches ABC Business Daily – your essential guide to business and the economy – Full Analysis

The ABC has today published the trailer for ABC Business Daily, a new weekday podcast making sense of the biggest stories in business, finance and economics.

Launching Monday 23 March, ABC Business Daily will be presented by Senior Business Correspondent Carrington Clarke, joined by other ABC Business journalists, breaking down the major business and economic stories of the day. 

Monday to Thursday ABC Business Daily will go beyond the headlines to explain what’s happening and why it matters, giving smart, clear analysis of the forces shaping the economy and how they impact Australians. From interest rates and AI to how global instability is affecting Australian markets, the podcast will leave listeners informed about what’s driving the economy. 

On Fridays, listeners can dive deeper with That’s Business with Alan Kohler. One of Australia’s most respected business journalists, each week Kohler will speak with a leading figure from the world of business, politics or economics to help audiences understand where Australia is headed – kicking off with Federal Treasurer Jim Chalmers.

ABC Business Daily and That’s Business join the ABC’s suite of daily podcasts – ABC Top Stories, ABC News Daily, Politics Now, ABC Sport Daily and Global Roaming – which deliver audiences trusted news and information across news, sport, international affairs and now business.

Together these podcasts bring Australians the best of the ABC, delivering the context, insight and explanation needed to better understand the world around them, whenever and wherever they choose to listen.

Audiences continue to turn to ABC podcasts for the news and information that matters. In the February Triton podcast ranker, released today, ABC News Top Stories was again the No 1 news podcast in the country and second on the overall list. ABC News Daily was no 11 and Politics Now No 22. Global Roaming rose seven places to be No 44 and ABC Sport Daily climbed eight places to No 59.

ABC Business Daily will be available on ABC listen and wherever you get your podcasts, with new episodes every weekday at 3pm from Monday 23 March. Audiences can also find That’s Business with Alan Kohler on YouTube on Friday afternoons.
