Editorial Policy

Last updated: February 9, 2026

At Your Finance Canada, we are committed to providing accurate, trustworthy, and helpful financial content for Canadians. This Editorial Policy outlines the principles and practices that guide our work.

Our Editorial Mission

Our mission is to help Canadians make informed financial decisions by providing clear, unbiased, and well-researched content on personal finance topics including credit cards, banking, mortgages, investing, insurance, taxes, and money management.

Independence and Integrity

Editorial independence is fundamental to our credibility. Our editorial team operates independently from our business and advertising teams. Advertisers and affiliate partners do not influence our editorial content, ratings, or recommendations.

How We Create Content

1. Research: Every article begins with thorough research from multiple authoritative sources including government agencies (CRA, FCAC), financial institutions, and industry publications.
2. Writing: Our content is written by experienced financial writers who understand the Canadian financial landscape.
3. Review: All content undergoes editorial review for accuracy, clarity, and compliance with our standards.
4. Updates: We regularly review and update existing content to ensure it reflects current rates, terms, and regulations.

How We Rate and Compare Products

When comparing financial products (credit cards, bank accounts, loans, etc.), we evaluate based on objective criteria including:

• Fees and interest rates
• Features and benefits
• Eligibility requirements
• Customer experience
• Value for specific use cases

Our rankings and recommendations reflect our honest assessment based on these criteria. Compensation from affiliate partnerships does not affect product rankings or ratings.

Affiliate Disclosure

Your Finance Canada earns revenue through affiliate partnerships. When you click on certain links and apply for or purchase financial products, we may receive compensation from the product issuer. This is how we keep our content free for readers.

Important: Whether or not we receive compensation never determines:

• Which products we review or recommend
• How products are rated or ranked
• The editorial content of our articles

Corrections Policy

We take accuracy seriously. If we discover an error in our content, we will correct it promptly and transparently. If you notice an error, please contact us at editorial@yourfinancecanada.com.

Sources and References

We rely on authoritative sources including:

• Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC)
• Canada Revenue Agency (CRA)
• Bank of Canada
• Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA)
• Official financial institution disclosures
• Peer-reviewed financial research
