How we create, review, and maintain our educational content
Editorial Policy
Our goal is to provide clear, accurate, independent investing education that everyday people can understand and use. This page explains how we decide what to publish, how we maintain quality, and how we minimize bias or conflicts of interest.
1. Independence
InvestorsEdge.com is not owned or controlled by any brokerage, bank, or financial institution. We do not allow partners or advertisers to influence our educational content.
- No company can buy a better ranking or review.
- No partner can pre-approve or edit our educational guides.
- We disclose affiliate relationships clearly and prominently.
2. How topics are chosen
Topics are selected based on:
- Common questions from everyday investors
- Important foundational concepts (ETFs, asset allocation, DCA, risk)
- High-impact decisions (fees, behaviour, diversification)
- Reader feedback from email and contact forms
- Search-driven interest around investing fundamentals
We prioritize content that has long-term educational value, not news or hype.
3. Content standards
All content is expected to meet the following standards:
- Accuracy: Facts are checked against reputable sources such as ETF providers, regulators, and academic research.
- Clarity: We avoid jargon and explain concepts in everyday language.
- Transparency: Risks, limitations, and trade-offs are always highlighted.
- No sensationalism: No hype, no predictions, no “secret tricks.”
- Relevance: Content must reflect what real investors need to know, not what sells ads.
4. Review & updates
Articles and tools are periodically reviewed and updated to account for changes in:
- Market conditions
- Regulations and tax rules
- ETF or fund details
- New data or research
Each major update is logged internally and older versions are replaced to ensure readers always see the most accurate information available.
5. Use of sources
We reference and rely on:
- Regulator websites (SEC, FCA, OSC, etc.)
- ETF provider fact sheets and official filings
- Major index provider methodology documents
- Peer-reviewed academic research where applicable
We avoid using unverifiable or sensational sources.
