Class CNBC (formerly CFN/CNBC) is a business and financial news television channel broadcast in Italy. It is essentially an Italian language version of CNBC Europe, albeit with a major focus on the Italian financial markets. The channel is headquartered in Milan, site of the Borsa Italiana, and is a joint venture between the publishing house Class Editori, which holds a majority stake, along with NBC Universal (owner of CNBC Europe) and Italy's largest commercial television company Mediaset, who hold 20% of the channel each.[1][3] The channel broadcasts for sixteen hours per day, covering trading in Europe, Asia and the United States[4] and it has correspondents in other countries, such as at CNBC Europe in London.[5] Class CNBC uses the current on-air graphical look of CNBC Europe, but it has used the same ticker since the launch of the channel. The director is Andrea Cabrini.

The programme is aired from CNBC Europe's video wall and hosted by correspondent Angela Antetomaso at 7PM and repeated across the night. Il Punto has the same opening used by Today's Business between 2002 and 2004.

"Report Weekend" and "Cinque giorni sui mercati" (5 days on the markets) are two programs broadcast across weekend mornings and nights that wrap the business week.

Normally "Cinque Giorni sui Mercati" is broadcast for the first time for the week on Fridays at 9PM.
