Content Policy

This policy explains how we create, review, and maintain content on our website, including the standards we follow for accuracy, transparency, and trust.

Our approach to content

We publish content to help people living and working abroad make informed decisions about their insurance and healthcare. We also publish content for insurance brokers and employers managing internationally mobile teams.

Where we mention our plans, it is because they are genuinely relevant to the topic. Where they are not, we focus on being helpful regardless.

Editorial standards

Accuracy

Every piece of content is researched, fact-checked, and reviewed before publication. Where we cite statistics or data, we reference the source. Where information changes, we update the content.

Honesty

We write honestly about how insurance works, including the parts most insurers would rather not explain. We include “do I need this?” guidance on product pages because we believe helping someone avoid an unnecessary purchase builds more trust than making a sale.

Independence

Our content reflects our own views and expertise. We don’t accept payment for editorial coverage, and our recommendations are based on what we believe is best for the reader.

Human-written

All published content is written by a human. We use AI tools to assist with research, data analysis, and production workflows, but the words are ours. We believe this matters, and we are happy to be held to it.

Compliance-reviewed

Content relating to insurance products and services is reviewed regularly for regulatory compliance. This is an ongoing process, not a one-off check .

Transparancy

We are committed to sharing how we operate, including things most insurers keep private. This means publishing data about our service performance, sharing real member experiences, being honest about what we do well and where we can improve, and explaining how our products and pricing work in plain language.

We publish transparency reports covering our claims performance, member satisfaction, and operational data. We also share case studies showing how we have handled complex claims and difficult situations, because the best evidence of good service is showing it in practice.

What we publish and why

We publish country-specific guides for expats in our key markets, practical insurance education, health and well-being content relevant to living abroad, resources for employers managing internationally mobile teams, and thought leadership on issues that matter to the expat community.

We don’t publish content solely to sell our products. We aim to be a resource that helps expats and non-expats alike navigate insurance and healthcare, whether or not they are William Russell members. If our content helps someone make a better decision, it has done its job.

Corrections

When we identify an error in published content, or one is brought to our attention, we correct it promptly. All content carries a “last updated” date, and we maintain version history in our content management system so that changes are tracked and time-bound.

Contact us

If you have a question about our content, notice an error, or would like to suggest a topic, we’d like to hear from you. You can reach our content team at [email protected]. We read every message.
