Editorial policy

Last updated: 2026-05-16

This policy sets out how we research, write and review the content on RetirementExpert.co.uk.

Accuracy

Every money page is checked against primary UK sources before publication and re-checked at least once a year, or whenever rules change. Pages show a "last reviewed" date.

Sources we use

  • GOV.UK (State Pension, benefits, tax, care)
  • HMRC publications
  • MoneyHelper (Money & Pensions Service)
  • Financial Conduct Authority (FCA)
  • Office for National Statistics (ONS)
  • Equity Release Council

Independence

Our editorial team writes content independently of advertisers. Sponsored or partner content is clearly labelled.

Conflicts of interest

Writers and reviewers must declare any conflicts of interest. We do not accept payment for positive coverage.

Corrections

If we get something wrong, we correct it openly. See our corrections policy.
