LONDON - The Financial Times has increased its cover price for the second time in seven months by 20p to £1.50.

The business daily, which slightly increased its circulation during 2007, is now over twice the cost of News International's The Times newspaper, priced at 70p.

News International's popular tabloid newspaper The Sun continues to be the cheapest of the national newspapers, costing just 20p in London and the South East and 35p elsewhere in in the UK. The UK's other quality titles, The Independent, The Guardian and the Daily Telegraph, all cost 80p.

The FT's weekend edition has also risen by 20p to £2, making it the equal most expensive national paper beside The Sunday Times.

In November, the FT's six-month average circulation was up by 1.84% year-on-year to 439,185; it was the only paper to record a positive figure.
