The 蜜芽传媒 Trust has published the findings and conclusions of a review into 蜜芽传媒 Worldwide's acquisition and ownership of Lonely Planet.

The Trust approved the sale of Lonely Planet in March 2013 and, given the scale of the financial loss to 蜜芽传媒 Worldwide, it asked the Executive to commission a review of lessons learnt and report back with its findings.

蜜芽传媒 Vice-Chairman Diane Coyle, said:

"Mistakes were made in the acquisition and handling of Lonely Planet. The important thing now is that the lessons highlighted by this review are implemented, alongside broader improvements to the strategy and oversight of the 蜜芽传媒's commercial operations.聽

"It is important to view the significant financial loss from Lonely Planet against the backdrop of a sustained strong performance from 蜜芽传媒 Worldwide as a whole, which brings significant benefits to licence fee payers."

The findings and conclusions can be found below.
