Subscriptions:

What are the benefits of subscribing to Menas electronic publications?

Menas is one of the world's leading business information providers, supplying news, data and analysis to the global business community. The amount of content you can view on menas.co.uk depends on the type of user you are. If you are an unregistered user, you will be limited in what you can access on menas.co.uk. If you are a registered user, you will be able to view 'Local Content' free of charge and a limited number of articles. If you have a current universal subscription to any of our publications, you will be able to view all the current and past articles/issues of the publication you subscribe to once registered. Additionally, you will also be able to peruse our extensive eLibrary, and download, for a reasonable price, a single issue of any other publication you don't already subscribe to. You will also be able to join any/every Forum on menas.co.uk

Do Menas Associates offer any other subscription products or services?

Menas Associates also offers professional consulting services based on a model that recognises each company as unique, and tailors each consulting model accordingly. We always aim to find the best way to deliver the full value of our expertise; whether through research and analysis, briefings, workshops, advice on demand, or operating as a neutral 'Chinese wall' between our clients and the in-country key players.

How much do subscriptions cost?

Menas Associates publishes nine electronic monthly, executive Focus reports (Algeria, Brazil, Caspian, Iran Strategic, Iraq, Libya, Nigeria and Vietnam, Yemen) and one quarterly (Sahara). They are only available as a universal corporate subscription. This means:

> Menas will email each issue to as many, or as few, nominated personnel from the subscribing organisation, wherever they are in the world.

> Using a specific user name and password, those nominated personnel also have access to Menas' fully searchable e-Library where they can view and/or download all of the previous issues of the publication to which the company or organisation subscribes.

Some of the publications also have databases that can be viewed and/or downloaded from the Menas e-Library. For example, Iran Strategic Focus has the Project Tracker Database and the Iranian Oil Sector Organisational Charts & Tables.

We also produce five short, weekly, electronic Politics & Security Reports on Algeria, Egypt, Ghana, Libya and Nigeria.

> A company can subscribe for a short period - a minimum of four weeks - or for as long as they want.

> Subscriptions can be cancelled with just four weeks notice, and/or subscribers can change which countries they want to receive.

> Six- or 12 -month subscriptions to the weekly reports can be taken out in advance, in which case a discount may be negotiated.
