MoneyOval ❚ Fact-Checking Policy
At MoneyOval, our mission is to provide clear, reliable, and insightful journalism. We recognize that in today’s fast-moving world of business, finance, technology, and global affairs, accuracy is non-negotiable. Our fact-checking process is designed to ensure the information we publish is truthful, verifiable, and trustworthy.
Our Approach to Fact-Checking
Every article published on MoneyOval undergoes a structured editorial process that includes careful fact-checking, source validation, and review. We verify the accuracy of claims, data, quotes, and contextual background before any piece goes live.
We adhere to the principle that truth builds trust, and we apply the same standards whether content is written by our in-house team, contributors, or external partners.
Key Elements We Verify
We fact-check a wide range of details, including but not limited to:
- Data and statistics: We cross-check data with reliable sources such as government publications, regulatory filings, academic institutions, or globally recognized research bodies.
- Quotes and attributions: We confirm all direct and paraphrased quotes with official transcripts, recordings, or communications from verified representatives.
- Financial information: Market data, company performance, economic forecasts, and investment claims are reviewed using credible financial databases or institutional reports.
- Names, titles, and timelines: We ensure people, positions, company names, dates, and events are accurately described.
- Hyperlinks and references: All outbound links and citations are evaluated to confirm their credibility, relevance, and accuracy.
