Format
Starting on 2 October 2007, ASB Business had been a main part of Sunrise, which was on air from 6:30 am. In an aim to attract more business viewers, particularly in Auckland, it was decided that from 6 October 2008, a new 30-minute version of ASB Business would be produced. It was hosted by financial journalist Michael Wilson. Sunrise moved to start at 7:00 am, featuring regular business updates.
TV3 cancelled ASB Business and Sunrise on 8 April 2010, stating both programmes were financially unsustainable.
ASB Business was previously the name of rival TVNZ's morning business programme on TV One at a similar timeslot. This programme is now titled NZI Business
