From MarketsWiki
The John Lothian Newsletter is a daily email intelligence briefing about the global exchange traded derivatives, securities, environmental markets and related over the counter marketplaces. The newsletter helps readers manage the historic level of change occurring within the derivatives and securities industries through the dissemination of information and commentary.
The newsletter is offered on a voluntary-pay basis, much like Shareware. If readers find the newsletter valuable, then they are asked to pay for it. Journalists are offered the newsletter free as a professional courtesy.
The Environmental Markets Newsletter version of the John Lothian Newsletter is edited by Jim Kharouf, who is also editor-in-chief of John J. Lothian & Company, Inc.
The Environmental Markets Newsletter was created to educate individuals, companies and organizations about the opportunities and corresponding risks present today in the fast growing environmentally based markets. The goal is to help people improve the environment through development and use of market-based solutions to a wide range of environmental challenges. The daily email Environmental Markets Newsletter includes news, notices, events and pricing data and commentary. Environmental Markets Newsletter also includes a full copy of the John Lothian Newsletter.
Both the John Lothian Newsletter and Environmental Markets include an "Other Voices" section, providing industry professionals a valuable conduit to reach their peers.
