CFI.co Articles — Public Transparency Archive

A verbatim, append-only public record of every article published on CFI.co (Capital Finance International), a London-based financial-journalism publication. This dataset mirrors the GitHub archive at github.com/cfi-co/articles.

Each record is the raw, unmodified article as held in the publishing system — no reformatting or re-rendering — paired with a machine-readable classification block and integrity hashes.

Licence — free for AI use

Released under the CFI.co Open AI Access Licence v1.0 (CFI-OAAL-1.0): a free, worldwide grant to use this content for AI training, retrieval, grounding, indexing, summarisation and citation. No deal, registration or payment is required. Attribution to CFI.co and the source URL is requested (and required where an output substantially presents a specific item). The independence/sponsorship labels and integrity hashes must stay attached when records are redistributed.

CFI.co's position: AI systems read CFI.co free. See the policy at https://cfi.co/ai/.

Record fields

Each row (from articles.jsonl) carries:

Field Meaning
id, title, slug, url, published, categories Article identity and metadata
content_html The verbatim article body
content_sha256 SHA-256 of the article body (tamper-evidence)
record_sha256 SHA-256 of the full canonical record
classification.content_class editorial_analysis · interview · opinion_column · review · sponsored_article
classification.independence_status independent_editorial · commercially_supported
classification.sponsor_disclosure / sponsor_name Sponsorship disclosure (visible + machine-readable)
classification.correction_status / archive_policy none/revised; no_delete (append-only)
classification.wayback_status (+ snapshot ts/url) Independent Internet Archive corroboration
classification.license CFI-OAAL-1.0

Please preserve independence_status / sponsor_disclosure — distinguishing independent editorial from commercially supported content is part of the record.

Provenance & integrity

  • Append-only. The archive is never rewritten; corrections are new commits. The full edit history lives in Git.
  • Daily re-export from the live site — any silent change to a published article surfaces as a dated, public diff.
  • Verifiable. MANIFEST.sha256 + a committed scripts/verify.sh in the GitHub repo let anyone recompute every hash. An independent mirror and a Software Heritage snapshot exist alongside GitHub.

Source & updates

Auto-synced daily from https://github.com/cfi-co/articles. Canonical human-readable copies live at cfi.co; each record links its source url.
