How the research is made
- Public sources only
- No client, partner or commercial material. Anyone can open what is cited.
- Every number sourced
- Each figure sits beside its source, one tap away. A claim that could not be confirmed on a live page or a current dataset is dropped, or marked as a gap.
- Judgement labelled
- Forecasts name who made them, and opinions are marked as opinions, so they stay apart from the facts.
- Checked before release
- For the 2026–27 edition, more than 2,000 cited figures and dates were checked against the pages they cite, and Wikipedia citations were traced back to original sources where they could be.
