This page explains both, including a real example of what our process has caught and corrected.\r\n  <\/p>\r\n\r\n  <h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 8px 0;\">Source Hierarchy<\/h3>\r\n  <p style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.6;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 28px 0;\">\r\n    We build every report on primary and official sources first: central banks, ministries of finance, national statistics institutes, and ITA Country Commercial Guides, supplemented by IMF and World Bank data. AI-assisted research tools are used only as a first-pass aggregator to speed up the research process &mdash; never as a source of record. Every material figure in a published report traces back to a named primary source.\r\n  <\/p>\r\n\r\n  <h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 8px 0;\">Independent Verification<\/h3>\r\n  <p style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.6;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 28px 0;\">\r\n    Before publication, every report undergoes a separate verification pass that cross-checks each material figure against primary sources and checks internal consistency &mdash; does the fiscal table agree with the GDP narrative? Does a stated credit-rating claim match the rating agency's actual action? This step is independent of the drafting process, precisely so it can catch what the drafting process might miss.\r\n  <\/p>\r\n\r\n  <div style=\"background:#F4EFE3;border-left:4px solid #B8892B;padding:20px 24px;margin:0 0 28px 0;border-radius:2px;\">\r\n    <p style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.6;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0;\">\r\n      <strong>A real example:<\/strong> during verification of our Paraguay Country Intelligence Report, our process identified and corrected three material issues from an earlier draft &mdash; a sovereign credit rating that had been misclassified, a GDP growth figure inconsistent with the underlying fiscal accounts, and a fiscal-outlook narrative that did not reconcile with the report's own data tables. All three were corrected before publication. The current edition reflects the verified figures, including Paraguay's two investment-grade ratings as of December 2025.\r\n    <\/p>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 8px 0;\">Revision Transparency<\/h3>\r\n  <p style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.6;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 16px 0;\">\r\n    We publish a revision number and a last-verified date for every country report, and we disclose material corrections rather than quietly folding them into the next edition. Showing our revision history is more useful to you than claiming the first draft was perfect &mdash; it's evidence the verification process actually catches things.\r\n  <\/p>\r\n\r\n  <div style=\"overflow-x:auto;margin:0 0 32px 0;\">\r\n    <table style=\"width:100%;border-collapse:collapse;font-size:14px;\">\r\n      <thead>\r\n        <tr style=\"background:#1A2B4A;\">\r\n          <th style=\"color:#FFFFFF;text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;\">Country Report<\/th>\r\n          <th style=\"color:#FFFFFF;text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;\">Current Revision<\/th>\r\n          <th style=\"color:#FFFFFF;text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;\">Last Verified<\/th>\r\n          <th style=\"color:#FFFFFF;text-align:left;padding:10px 12px;font-weight:700;\">Material Corrections<\/th>\r\n        <\/tr>\r\n      <\/thead>\r\n      <tbody>\r\n        <tr style=\"background:#F5F7FA;\">\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">Paraguay<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">Rev 5<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">[August 2026]<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">3 (see above)<\/td>\r\n        <\/tr>\r\n        <tr style=\"background:#FFFFFF;\">\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">Argentina<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">Rev 2<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">[March 2026]<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">5<\/td>\r\n        <\/tr>\r\n        <tr style=\"background:#F5F7FA;\">\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">Uruguay<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">Rev 2<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">[March 2026]<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;border-bottom:1px solid #E0E0E0;\">5<\/td>\r\n        <\/tr>\r\n        <tr style=\"background:#FFFFFF;\">\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;\">Bolivia<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;\">In progress<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;\">&mdash;<\/td>\r\n          <td style=\"padding:10px 12px;color:#1A2B4A;\">&mdash;<\/td>\r\n        <\/tr>\r\n      <\/tbody>\r\n    <\/table>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n\r\n  <h3 style=\"font-size:20px;font-weight:700;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0 0 8px 0;\">Data Provenance Labeling<\/h3>\r\n  <p style=\"font-size:15px;line-height:1.6;color:#1A2B4A;margin:0;\">\r\n    Inside every report, we label each economic figure as Actual, Estimate, or Forecast, so you always know how much confidence to place in a given number.
