Faith Thompson

Faith Thompson covers the business of gambling for CasinoPost, with an interest in company results, partnerships and changes in the online gaming market. She pays particular attention to the difference between growth claims and the figures used to support them, including reporting periods, revenue definitions and changes in active customers. Her approach is to organise the evidence around the questions a reader would ask rather than reproduce a company announcement in a new order. Alongside her work for the network’s technology and music sites, Faith brings a practical editorial focus to stories about digital products, commercial decisions and the people affected by them.
