How the newsroom works
We monitor market feeds and index data continuously, then produce original editorial summaries of the facts reported. Automation helps us find and draft; it never publishes. Every article is approved by a named editor and carries full attribution to the outlets whose reporting it draws on.
Our standards are set out in the editorial policy, AI & content policy and corrections policy.
Independence
Commercial partners have no influence over coverage. Market data shown on the site is indicative and subject to our market data disclaimer.
