CNBC launches in LatAm with Sky Mexico

CNBC International has partnered with Sky Mexico to launch CNBC Latin America.

The business and financial news network will broadcast English-language CNBC content from around the world and is due to go live week on Sky Mexico channel 631.

Through distribution the channel will also reach viewers in countries such as Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama.

“The launch of CNBC Latin America is the latest addition to the suite of strategic partnerships underpinning CNBC’s emerging markets strategy,” said CNBC International president and managing director, KC Sullivan.

“We are pleased to bring CNBC’s unique and robust content proposition to the region.”

The launch follows the rollout of CNBC Indonesia earlier this year.
