What these investigative reports cover
Our investigative reports focus on decisions that move nations and markets: corruption trails, covert lobbying, sanctions design, surveillance systems, energy routes, supply chains and humanitarian fallout. Each investigation explains who benefits, who pays and what happens next.
Method and verification
- Primary evidence: contracts, court filings, corporate registries, sanctions dockets, procurement records and FOI documents.
- Data discipline: reproducible datasets, versioned spreadsheets, timestamps and clear method notes.
- Source standards: on-record interviews preferred; confidential sources require demonstrable public interest and corroboration.
- Visual checks: time and place validation on photos and video, satellite cues where available, manipulation screening.
- Transparency: if facts change, copy updates with visible timestamps and correction notes.
What we publish
- Investigative reports: long-form findings anchored in documents and data.
- Special reports: multi-part packages that map actors, timelines and money flows.
- Explainers: context modules that decode jargon, legal frameworks and technical systems.
- Follow-ups: accountability checks on promises, budgets and enforcement.
