This is definitely a custom lettering job, although I don't know who did it. A-list magazines like Fortune simply don't use mere fonts for their logos.

That said, there may be something similar available.

Perhaps TF Arrow maybe from Tracyfaces

It's a bit like Nick Shinn's Beaufort, Romana (not counting the R), or even ITC Golden Cockerel, depending on how you look at it. But I don't know of anything that would come very close, weird though it seems.

hehe. this is a custom. why do you want to know?

I would say as a general rule logos of large corporations and businesses will have custom logos. Think of it in Fortune there isn't one repeating character. Thats almost the first question I'd have for someone looking for an ID. Are there repeating characters?

Good point Yves, its like asking when the sample was created to narrow it down to pre or post digital
