TheBankToday treats verification as a core part of its editorial process, particularly for banking, financial and government-policy information.
Source priority
We prefer primary sources such as Reserve Bank of India notifications, government portals, regulator circulars, bank notices, stock-exchange filings, court records and direct statements. Reputable secondary reporting may be used for context, but material claims should be traced to the strongest available source.
Verification process
- Names, figures, dates, eligibility conditions and quotations are checked before publication.
- Developing claims are attributed and clearly identified as preliminary when confirmation is incomplete.
- Images, screenshots and social-media posts are reviewed for source, date and context.
- Opinion, estimates and forecasts are distinguished from verified facts.
Financial information
Interest rates, fees, market data and scheme rules can change quickly. Articles should state the relevant date and link or refer to the responsible institution where practical. Readers should confirm current terms before acting.
After publication
If new evidence materially changes a story, we update or correct it and add an editor’s note where appropriate. Send supporting evidence to takendra@thebanktoday.com.
