Research and sourcing
We prioritise primary sources such as regulators, government departments, official statistics, company filings and providers’ published terms. Secondary reporting may help identify or contextualise a story, but material factual claims should be checked against an original source wherever practical.
Review before publication
Drafts may use automated research and writing assistance. Every article must be reviewed by a human before publication for accuracy, clarity, balance and relevance. Automation does not make publishing decisions.
Facts, analysis and uncertainty
We distinguish confirmed facts from analysis. Where outcomes remain uncertain, we say so. We do not present forecasts as facts, promise returns or manufacture urgency.
Corrections
Material corrections should be made promptly and noted on the article. Minor spelling and formatting changes may be made without a correction note. Readers can report concerns through our contact page.
Commercial independence
InvestPath may receive compensation when a reader follows an affiliate link or becomes a customer of a partner. That relationship does not determine our factual conclusions. Commercial links are identified, and our comparisons explain the basis on which products are assessed.
Scope
Our content is general information, not a personal recommendation. We do not know readers’ objectives, finances or tolerance for risk.
