History and profile
Cinco Días was first published in March 1978.[3][4] The reason behind the establishment of this business paper was related to the oil crisis experienced in the country in the mid-1970s.[5] Due to this crisis Spanish society became more interested in macro economics and labor-related problems.[5]
Cinco Días is published in tabloid format[6] five times per week from Monday to Friday[3] and is based in Madrid.[1][7] In 1989 the paper became owned by the PRISA group[8] which is also the owner of El País and Diario AS.[9][10][11] The publisher of Cinco Días is Estructura, a subsidiary of Prisa Group.[6][12]
Cinco Días has various supplements[13] and includes a section for articles from The Wall Street Journal.[14] The paper has a left-liberal stance.[8][15]
