Editorial and review policy
Framont Access Insights articles are written by the Framont Access editorial team and reviewed for regulatory and structural accuracy by Gianluigi Montagner, CEO and Founder – Chief Executive Officer, Framont & Partners Management. Every material legal, numeric, licence, listing or product-structure claim is tied to a named primary source with a stated date, and claims that hold only in one jurisdiction or only for one Framont product are labelled as such on the page.
This policy covers the bilingual articles published under Insights. It exists so a reader — or a search engine, or an AI answer engine — can tell who wrote a page, who checked it, what it rests on, and how to get it corrected. Last updated .
Who writes and who reviews
Author. Articles are written by the Framont Access editorial team. No individual byline is published, and the author node in the structured data is an organisation rather than a person. That is deliberate: a named author requires that person's verified identity and written consent, and none has been established. It is an open item, not an oversight.
Reviewer. Regulatory, structural and product-descriptive content is reviewed by Gianluigi Montagner, CEO and Founder – Chief Executive Officer, Framont & Partners Management. The review covers ETIs, AMCs, AIF/FIA, PRIIPs KIDs, private credit and systematic strategies. The reviewer validates the material for factual and regulatory accuracy; he is not its author. Consent for this attribution, and its exact wording, was given in writing on .
The attribution is gated in code. The repository's validator refuses to pass any page that publishes a named reviewer while consent is not recorded as approved, so withdrawing consent automatically blocks deployment of the attribution.
Source hierarchy
Sources are preferred in this order, and a lower tier never carries a claim on its own where a higher tier exists:
| Tier | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Primary law | EUR-Lex regulations, directives, delegated acts and consolidated texts; national legislation and implementing decrees |
| Regulator material | MFSA, FMA Liechtenstein, ESMA and national competent authorities: rulebooks, circulars, public registers |
| Issuer documents | Base prospectuses, final terms, KIDs, offering memoranda, term sheets, exchange listing records |
| Institutional research | IMF, ECB, EBA and equivalent, for market-level statistics |
| Academic work | Peer-reviewed research, for methodological claims |
Marketing microsites are never the sole evidence for a legal, licence, listing or product-structure claim — including Framont's own. Where a Framont page is the only available source for a product fact, the fact is labelled a Framont example and the reader is pointed at the governing document.
Scope labelling
A statement true across the EU, one true only in a single member state, and one true only of a single Framont product are three different kinds of claim. Conflating them is the most common way an otherwise accurate article misleads, so each carries a visible label:
- General rule applies EU-wide, or to the instrument class generally.
- Malta depends on national law or a national regulator.
- Framont example is a fact about a specific Framont or partner-issued product.
The label is inline text rather than a footnote for a reason: an answer engine that lifts a sentence out of its page should carry the qualification with it.
Dates and time-sensitive figures
Any market size, share, yield, cost or threshold that can go stale carries an explicit as of date next to it. Figures that cannot be attached to a dated, methodologically transparent source are removed rather than softened. Where a figure is a practitioner estimate rather than a measurement, it is labelled as one, dated, and its basis stated.
Review frequency
- Full review of the article set every six months.
- Triggered review within 20 working days of a change in the underlying law or regulator rules, or of any change to a referenced product's terms, listing or documentation.
- Link check at every deployment.
The visible Last reviewed date and the dateModified value in the structured data always match the date the content was actually approved, and neither is advanced for cosmetic edits.
Corrections
Factual corrections go to the editorial team. When a correction is accepted, the article is corrected in both languages in the same change, the source registry is updated, the review date is advanced, and — where the original statement was materially wrong rather than merely imprecise — a dated correction note is added at the foot of the article and left in place. Corrections are not made silently.
Conflicts of interest
Framont Access is operated by Framont & Partners Management, which acts as portfolio manager to several of the instruments the articles use as examples and earns fees from them. That is a real conflict and it is disclosed: product examples are always labelled, no article recommends a product or asserts suitability for any reader, educational claims are sourced to law, regulators or independent research rather than to Framont material, and the reviewer's role and entity are stated in full next to his name so a reader can weigh the review accordingly.
What these articles are not
They are information, not investment advice, and not an offer or solicitation. They do not replace a product's Key Information Document, prospectus, final terms, offering memorandum or term sheet. Where an article and a governing document disagree, the governing document controls.
