Accuracy
We verify facts before we publish. Figures are attributed to their source, such as the State Bank of Pakistan, PSEB, P@SHA, company filings or official statements. When a claim cannot be verified, we say so.
Sourcing
We name our sources wherever possible. Anonymous sources are used only when the information is important, cannot be obtained on the record, and has been confirmed by an editor.
Independence
Our editorial decisions are made by our editors alone. Advertisers, sponsors and partners have no say in what we report.
Sponsored content
Paid articles and press releases are clearly labelled “Sponsored” or “Press Release” and are kept separate from our own reporting.
Original reporting
We write our stories in our own words. When we report news first published elsewhere, we credit and link to the original source.
Conflicts of interest
Staff must disclose any personal or financial interest in a company or person they cover, and step aside from that story where needed.
Corrections
We correct errors promptly. See our Corrections Policy.
