Editorial standards

Our publication covers franchising, brands and international business. Factual claims require source evidence. We do not invent quotations, announcements or financial figures.

Verification before publication

Sensitive or disputed claims require human editorial review. Unsupported stories are held or rejected. Press release submissions are not automatically treated as verified news.

Transparency and corrections

Sources, authorship and publication dates accompany news coverage. Educational illustrations are identified. Corrections retain a version history and require affected translations to be reviewed.

Commercial independence

Advertising and sponsored material are labelled. Paid placements do not guarantee independent editorial coverage.
