Editorial Policy

These are the standards our reporting is held to at TraderNews — Breaking Financial News, Decoded.

Accuracy

We verify claims before publication. Where a fact cannot be confirmed, we say so in the article rather than implying more certainty than we have.

Sources

We name sources wherever it is safe and fair to do so. Anonymity is granted only when the information is in the public interest and the source faces real risk. Anonymous claims are corroborated before they run.

Fairness

Anyone facing significant criticism in an article is given a fair opportunity to respond before publication, and their response is reported.

Independence

Advertisers and sponsors have no say in editorial coverage. Sponsored content is labelled and produced separately from the newsroom.

Conflicts of interest

Staff declare financial or personal interests that touch on their reporting and step aside from stories where a conflict exists.

AI and automation

Any use of automated tools in the production of an article is disclosed, and a human editor is responsible for everything we publish.

Corrections

Errors are corrected promptly and transparently. See our Corrections Policy for the process.
