Our ethical system is designed in such a way that this precious resource is always at the disposal of legitimate research while still honoring copyright and publisher rights.

The Importance of Ethical Access to Financial Publications

Financial publications such as Mint are a valuable addition to India's varied media scene. They are the primary sources for understanding market conditions, corporate developments, and economic policy changes. The access we provide to them in an ethical manner is a recognition of the publishers' rights as well as the public interest in conserving this heritage.

Being one of the major financial newspapers, Mint has been not only a witness but also a recorder of the major changes in India's economic development. It has recorded everything from market reforms to corporate scandals, from policy changes to economic crises. The present and future of this newspaper are very much intertwined with issues of access that are carefully managed with respect to morality and a balance between conservation, public interest, and copyright.

Historic Significance:Mint has been recording the financial markets and economic development in India for a long time, thus, it is a very important source of information for economic and historical research.

Our Mint service is operation with an emphatic educational focus and is mainly relevant to academic researchers, finance students, and educational institutions. The made available content serves as a research resource for various disciplines such as finance, economics, business administration, market analysis, and corporate studies. We are not focusing on casual readers who are looking for current news, but rather on those who have legitimate educational and research interests in the historical content.

Some of the academic uses of the historical content of the Mint include:

  • Financial Research:Providing primary source materials for studies on market trends and investment patterns

Copyright Compliance with Financial Publications

Handling of Mint content should be in line with the copyright regulations and fair use principles. Our service takes a few compliance actions:

Historical Focus

We offer mostly older works for which copyright terms facilitate educational use and historical research.

Educational Use

All the access granted is intended for educational and research purposes only, not for general consumption.

Proper Attribution

Each article makes clear that the information is taken from and is properly identified as originating from Mint.

Our fair use policy is based on the consideration of the research being historically transformative, the public being benefited by preservation of historical documents, and there being almost no effect on the market for the current Mint publications. We take these factors into account to ensure that our service is in line with but not against the publisher's interests.

Supporting Financial Journalism

By what we do, we commit ourselves to the financial journalism industry in India. Through the provision of access to the historical Mint content, we encourage subscriptions to the current publications.
