Editorial Guidelines

Last updated: October 11, 2026

Accuracy & sourcing

We base guides on primary sources wherever possible — government and regulator websites, central banks, official tax authorities and peer-reviewed research. Figures, limits and rules are checked before publication and at each review.

Calculator methodology

Every calculator uses standard, documented financial formulas, explained on the calculator page. We test calculators against independent reference results before publishing.

Independence

Commercial relationships never influence our editorial content. Sponsored content is clearly labelled and written separately from editorial guides.

Plain English

We avoid jargon. When a technical term is needed, we define it or link to our glossary.

Reviews & updates

Guides show a "last updated" date and are reviewed regularly, and immediately when rules change.

Corrections

Found an error? Tell us. We correct material errors promptly and note significant corrections on the page.

Not advice

Our content is educational. It isn't personalised financial, investment, tax or legal advice. See our disclaimer.
