Platform Updates — Global Investment Reviews
A dated overview of Global Investment Reviews, its business background, platform changes, language support and content translation approach.
# Platform Updates
This page records important milestones in the development of Global Investment Reviews (GIR). It is intended to help visitors understand the site's background, platform changes and multilingual publishing approach.
## December 2025 — Website established
Global Investment Reviews was established in December 2025 with a focus on investment, financial markets, research and educational resources for readers.
## September 2026 — Sole-proprietorship documentation
In September 2026, the business obtained local documentation from a Union Parishad in Bangladesh in connection with its sole-proprietorship status. The proprietorship is owned by Iqbal Hossain. This describes the business structure as a sole proprietorship; it should not be interpreted as meaning that the business is a separately incorporated company.
## October 2026 — Major platform and multilingual changes
October 2026 brought a substantial platform and publishing update. The website moved from WordPress to an Eleventy-based static-site architecture, with hosting and a Git-based content-management workflow intended to support efficient page delivery and content maintenance.
The platform includes interactive financial calculators, investment-research tools, market heatmaps and data-analysis tools. Depending on the individual tool, visitors may be able to analyse results or use available actions such as CSV, PNG or PDF export, printing or copying. These functions are available only where they have been implemented and tested.
To improve the experience for visitors who speak different languages and to show respect for the linguistic diversity of our audience, GIR began publishing translated versions of content in October 2026. In addition to the English source content, the site's translation languages are:
- Bengali (বাংলা)
- Spanish (Español)
- French (Français)
- German (Deutsch)
- Portuguese (Português)
- Arabic (العربية)
- Chinese (中文)
- Japanese (日本語)
- Hindi (हिन्दी)
- Korean (한국어)
- Italian (Italiano)
- Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia)
- Urdu (اردو)
- Dutch (Nederlands)
- Finnish (Suomi)
