Quality of the finance news and journalism on the site. Here we look at the quality and range of the information on the site. Is the information in the finance news useful and well categorized? We found out..
Cool Data
The content is professionally compiled by leading financial analysts and correspondents. It is global content and references topical-interest stories. It is also generally well-categorized although we were somewhat disillusioned by the overwhelming number of categories on site.

How often is this site updated with financial news? Is it daily, by the hour or by the minute? We graded on the relevancy and currency of the breaking financial news..
The news is up to date, however we are not always convinced of the newsworthiness of all the content. The news relays financial information in a multitude of currencies too.

How easy is it to navigate around the site? We tried and tested it out and graded..

Site navigation is certainly in need of improvement. We much rather prefer to navigate with a top panel of dropdown categories and icons. However in this site there are only side panels with content to click on. The site is in need of a template redesign.
Design: 1/10

How does the site look? This parameter evaluates the overall design, style, colors and feel of the site, giving extra points for innovative techniques..

In the design arena there are many flaws that we spotted. These include a rather bland background and an unusually long downward scrolling home page. At first glance we may well have missed the interesting money stories on the bottom of TheBanker.com

Innovation: 3/10

Why is it different to other financial news sites? We graded on originality and innovation..

We searched high and low and despite our best efforts, we failed to locate any significant innovations on site.

Market Data: 1/10

Is this site packed with useful statistics for online bankers, savers and investors? Are these financial stats updated regularly? Here we looked at the facts and figures found on the site..
There are numerous stats for customers to look at. We much rather prefer live interactive feeds with up-to-the-minute statistical analyses.
Multimedia Options: 1/10

What else can I do here? Are there online videos, audio, images, podcasts or anything else? We found out..
Luckily there are a handful of multimedia options available from TheBanker.  We found video and audio, magazine and other related multimedia options. We feel they deserve an average grade, but not much more.
Social Options: 0/10

How interactive is this site? Is there a Facebook Group? Twitter? RSS feeds? Linked In? Forum? We found out..
We clicked on and opened several articles. The option to share news and video content on social networking sites was not always readily available to us. We checked the left-hand panel and found multiple social links – again it’s confusing and hard to follow.
