The Daily Economy aims to be accurate, useful and transparent. This page explains how our articles are researched, written, checked and corrected.
Sources
We rely on primary and established sources: official statistics offices (such as the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Energy Information Administration, Eurostat and national statistics institutes), central banks, energy regulators, company filings, and established news organisations such as Reuters, AP, AFP and major national newspapers. Every news article lists and links its sources so readers can check them.
Verification
- Key facts, figures and dates are cross-checked in at least two independent sources before publication.
- If sources disagree or a figure cannot be confirmed, we say so, round it, or leave it out. We never invent numbers, quotes or people.
- Market figures state the time they refer to; intraday numbers are labelled as such.
- Savings estimates show the assumptions and the math so you can apply them to your own bills.
Use of AI
We use AI tools to help research, summarise sources and draft articles, and to generate illustrative images. AI-generated images are illustrations, not photographs of the events described. All articles follow the sourcing and verification rules on this page, and articles produced with AI assistance say so at the end.
Independence and neutrality
We report facts neutrally and do not take political sides. We are not paid to cover any company, product or policy. Advertising, when shown, is separate from editorial content and has no influence on it.
Not advice
Our content is general information, not personal financial, investment, tax or legal advice. We never tell readers to buy or sell specific investments.
Corrections
If we get something wrong, we fix it as quickly as possible and, for significant errors, add a note at the end of the article explaining what changed and when. To report an error, please use our contact form.
