Fortune is publicly launching its “Fortune 500 Digest“ weekday newsletter, opening one of its most successful yet previously “under-the-radar” products to new subscribers for the first time.
The daily newsletter, which has been tested in recent months with an audience that has grown during a Beta stage to nearly 400,000 readers, delivers a rundown of the most important business news and analysis each morning.
It is already performing at an exceptional level, with an approximately 50% open rate — among the highest across Fortune’s newsletter portfolio.
It is written by Jim Edwards, the executive editor for global news at Fortune. He was previously the editor-in-chief of Business Insider’s news division.
