Welcome to Financial Journalist

Currently this site is a shop window for my work but there are alternative plans for the future.

Top journalist Gerry O'Kane can bring a broad spectrum of international experience to your business or publications, and a look through this site will give a feel for both the width and quality. To search the site for my articles, enter your keywords in the search box. To make contact, please use the resources on thee side panel.

The articles contained within are by no means comprehensive, nor are the publications that are listed. The site sets out to illustrate the types of work done and includes an interview with Bill Gates back in 1984.

While the site contains general pieces, technology and political writing, O'Kane has been most prolific in producing financial articles over the past few years. These range from unit trust/mutual fund articles, to analyses of more esoteric financial instruments, rules, regulations and infrastructure.

The site structure is simple: click on a category in the sidebar to get a list of stories and then carry on.

What the site does not yet contain is any multi-media content from either my radio or television work but links will take you to the BBC or CNBC Asia sites related to earlier jobs.

By and large it has also left out project work for clients due to confidentiality agreements but, as the CV shows, this has included:
» speech writing for senior executives at Hongkong Telecom
» ghost writing for financial institutions such as Bank of Bermuda
» technical writing for AT&T, Northern Telecom and DEC
» confidential reports for 3Com et al
» media training for Edelman Public Relations.

The list could go on.

Thanks must go to John Sylvester at V9 Design & Build for the more complex design aspects in building this website.
