Why does why co-branding requires real authorisation matter?
This issue exposes a distinction often lost in short explanations of testing financial technology claims against evidence and limits. One label or visual is not enough to establish a status, safety property or claim. Ask what evidence exists, what is missing and where a conclusion applies.
The distinction behind the headline
Two logos placed together may suggest a partnership or endorsement. Such a claim requires permission and a clear description of the relationship. Visual proximity should never substitute for proof.
A strong editorial check separates the claim, the evidence that supports it and its limits. Primary sources are especially important for licensing or official status.
