From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

Salomon brothers, the giant American investment bank, has had "special conditions" imposed on it for the next 12 months by the Securities and Futures Authority (SFA). The SFA has concluded that Salomon had been in breach of SIB Principle 9 in that its control system had "failed to keep pace with the expansion and complexity of its business". Although Salomon has corrected these failings, the SFA has required the bank to provide special monthly reports highlighting any problems with general ledger accounts. Salomon's auditors will review these reports every quarter and pass on their findings to the SFA.
