Independence & Conflict-of-Interest Policy

By the NewEdgePolicy Editorial Team · Last updated 13 July 2026

Our editorial content is independent of our advertising and affiliate relationships. No insurer can pay to be recommended, rated higher, or written about more kindly.

The wall between money and words

NewEdgePolicy is ad-supported and may earn affiliate commissions. That funding does not influence what we say. Advertisers and affiliate partners get no editorial control, no advance review, and no ability to alter our explanations, comparisons, or cautions.

How we manage conflicts

Educational content is produced independently of commercial partnerships.
Where a page relates to a product we may earn from, our Transparency Policy and disclosures apply.
We would rather lose a commission than mislead a reader on a financial decision.

Keeping this honest. If any statement here is inaccurate, out of date, or unclear, please tell us. We log corrections with the date they were made. This page is reviewed on our standard editorial cycle.

Research MethodologyWe research every topic from primary sources first — IRDAI regulations and circulars, insurer policy wordings, and official government data — before writing a single sentence.

Evidence MethodologyKey claims carry a machine-readable evidence record — the authority behind them, the source, its date, and a confidence level — so you and AI systems can verify them.

Source Selection PolicyWe rank sources by authority. Regulators and primary documents sit at the top; insurer and aggregator marketing sits at the bottom and is never used as proof.

Fact-Checking PolicyBefore a page publishes, its material claims are checked against the primary source and recorded in our evidence layer. Anything we cannot verify does not go in as fact.
