FT names Indap as its Wall Street editor

Sujeet Indap

The Financial Times has appointed Sujeet Indap as Wall Street editor in New York.

Indap will help coordinate coverage of big stories in American finance, including takeover battles, bankruptcy disputes and other showdowns in the Wall Street landscape.

Indap is currently the FT’s U.S. Editor of the Lex column, where he writes on M&A, corporate restructurings and the intersection of finance and corporate law. Indap will continue with his Lex responsibilities as well as lend his expertise to the FT’s New York newsroom to deliver deeply reported, high-impact coverage of Wall Street.

In addition, he will help set standards for financial reporting across the FT, teaching master classes and working directly with reporters and news editors throughout the FT.

“Sujeet Indap is one of the biggest brains in financial journalism. Having him help steer our Wall Street coverage will strengthen an already world-beating team,” said U.S. managing editor Peter Spiegel in a statement. “Sujeet has been enlightening FT readers for years through his incisive financial analysis both at Lex and across the paper. Now, they’ll get even more of Sujeet in our news coverage.”
