Investir was a monthly business magazine published in Paris between 1974 and 2011. The magazine merged with Le Journal des Finances to create a new weekly, Investir-Le Journal des Finances in late January 2011.
Investir was established in 1974.[1] Its first issue was released on 28 January 1974 with Gérard Vidalenche as publication director.[2] It was relaunched in 1988.[3] The magazine had been published by Hachette Filipacchi until 2001 when it began to be published Quebecor World Inc.[4] Its headquarters was in Paris.[3]
It provided in-depth analyses and practical tips for managing the assets to its readers and audience, including major companies in the country.[3][5] The magazine founded Actionnaira which was a personal investment trade show and organized numerous trade-related events and activities.[6]
