This page describes the blog’s standards for commercial disclosure and editorial independence. It does not currently name a legal operator, owner, or funding source.
For information about the operator, ownership, or financial support, contact editorial@investment-banking.org. Confirmed ownership and material funding information should be published here.
Editorial decisions should remain with the people responsible for the post. A commercial arrangement must not buy a conclusion, prevent a supported criticism, or give a sponsor control over unrelated content.
Possible publishing revenue includes advertising, sponsorship, licensing, and distribution arrangements. This list does not establish which arrangements the blog has. Any material relationship should be disclosed here and on affected posts.
Contributors should disclose relationships relevant to an assignment, including financial interests, outside work, and family ties. A conflict may require disclosure, reassignment, or declining the post.
Readers should be able to identify advertising, sponsored posts, and affiliate relationships where they appear. A general policy page cannot replace a disclosure on the affected content.
Political or advocacy material supplied through a commercial relationship should be labeled accordingly. A relevant relationship between the blog and the subject of a post should be disclosed in plain language.
This page should be updated when ownership, control, or material financial support changes. Readers can request clarification of a relationship they believe is missing.
Readers with questions about ownership, funding, or editorial independence may reach the blog at editorial@investment-banking.org.
