Because money never sleeps, international markets are always in motion. CNBC World gives U.S. viewers a dedicated window into business and market developments across Europe, Asia, and beyond. Its programming also includes interviews with global executives and in-depth business features.
CNBC World is a separate pay TV channel from CNBC, and availability is narrower than the main U.S. network. CNBC+ offers a global business-day livestream, but that shouldn’t be mistaken for the CNBC World linear schedule.
In this guide, we’ll help you find CNBC World channel numbers, compare TV providers that carry the network, and decide whether a different global business stream would meet your needs. Keep reading to lock down your exact channel and stay connected to the global economy.

How to get CNBC World
CNBC World is available through select cable, satellite, and fiber TV providers, including DIRECTV, Spectrum, and Verizon Fios. Package requirements vary, but you’ll typically find the network tucked into higher-tier plans or specialized news add-ons rather than a provider’s entry-level lineup.
For streaming, DIRECTV’s MyNews Genre Pack includes CNBC World, while YouTube TV offers the channel through its standard base plan. If you don’t need the exact linear feed, CNBC+ provides a separate global business-day livestream.

What’s on CNBC World?
Shifting the focus away from Wall Street, CNBC World centers on global financial news and business coverage tied to overseas markets. Its biggest advantage is the time-zone shift: Programs like “Squawk Box Europe” and “Squawk Box Asia” cover international action while U.S. trading floors are closed.
The channel also features executive interviews and business-focused programs like “Managing Asia,” “The CNBC Conversation,” and “Marketing Media Money.” Its schedule includes reruns of shows like “American Greed,” offering a mix of market coverage, interviews, and business documentaries.
CNBC World channel FAQ
What's the cheapest way to get CNBC World?
DIRECTV's MyNews Genre Pack is the cheapest qualifying live TV option we verified, with a regular price of $44.99 per month. Promotional discounts and free trials may also lower your initial cost.
How can I watch CNBC World for free?
CNBC World isn't available with an over-the-air antenna, and there's no verified permanent free stream of its linear channel. But eligible new customers can watch during DIRECTV's five-day free trial of MyNews.
Can I get CNBC World as a standalone subscription?
No, CNBC World isn't available as a standalone linear channel subscription. CNBC+ provides separate global livestream coverage from the U.S., Europe, and Asia, but it doesn't offer the same linear feed as CNBC World.
Is CNBC World included whenever a plan has CNBC?
