The report of the independent panel, led by Sir Alan Budd, was published on 25 May 2007. The terms of reference for the review were:

"To assess the impartiality of ±«Óãtv news and factual coverage of business with particular regard to accuracy, context, independence and bias, actual or perceived; to assess whether the ±«Óãtv portrays a fair and balanced picture of the world of business and of its impact on society more generally; to focus primarily on business coverage in mainstream output though specialist business programming should also be considered; and to make recommendations to the ±«Óãtv Trust for improvements where necessary."

The report and supporting documentation are listed below.

On 16 August 2007, the Trust published the ±«Óãtv management's response to the impartiality of business coverage report, available below.
