[edit] Business model
The costs of most of NPG's publications are recovered via subscription to individuals and institutions. Most, but not all publications of the Nature Publishing Group are only available to subscribers. However, authors are allowed to publish the accepted, unedited paper on their website or the funding body's archive no earlier than 6 months after publication[1].
