Readers use African Business Circle to make decisions. These are the rules we follow so they can.
Every factual claim is sourced. Wherever we can, we link to the primary source: the filing, the regulator’s notice, the company’s own statement, the official data.
We report what happened, then say clearly where our analysis begins. The commercial observation in each Friday Brief story, and the argument in each Monday Signal, are our view and are presented as such.
We do not accept payment for coverage. Sponsors and advertisers have no influence over what we cover. Paid placements are always labelled as sponsored or as partner content.
Anyone writing for us declares any financial interest or board role connected to a company or institution they cover. Where a link exists, we disclose it at the end of the article.
We name our sources. We grant anonymity only when a source would face real harm for speaking, and we tell readers why.
Photographs are credited where the source requires it. We never present an AI-generated image as a photograph.
When we get something wrong, we fix it and say so. See our Corrections policy.
