Editorial standards

Accuracy

We verify information before publication, seek out original sources where possible, and give people and organisations a fair opportunity to respond to criticism.

Independence

Editorial decisions are made by the newsroom, not by advertisers, sponsors or owners. Commercial relationships do not determine coverage.

Sourcing

We are transparent about where our information comes from. Anonymous sources are used only where the information cannot be obtained otherwise and the public interest justifies it.

Accuracy of numbers and data

Figures, charts and financial data are attributed to their source. We distinguish clearly between reported figures and our own analysis.

Corrections

We correct errors promptly and transparently. See our corrections policy.

Separation of advertising and editorial

Sponsored and commercial content is labelled and kept distinct from editorial. See advertising.

Raising a concern

If you believe our coverage has fallen short of these standards, please raise it with the newsroom at contact@businesspr.ng through the channels on our contact page, and mark your message as an editorial complaint. Concerns are reviewed by the editorial leadership, and confirmed factual errors are handled under our corrections policy.
