Our Commitment to Transparency

At Palladian, we believe in complete transparency about our business relationships and advertising practices. This Advertising Disclosure explains how we may earn revenue through various partnerships and advertising arrangements, ensuring you understand any potential conflicts of interest.

We are committed to maintaining your trust by clearly disclosing all advertising relationships and ensuring that our professional recommendations remain independent and objective.

Affiliate Relationships and Partnerships

Affiliate Program Participation

Palladian may participate in affiliate marketing programs with various service providers, software companies, and professional organizations. When you click on certain links on our website or engage with services we recommend, we may receive a commission or referral fee if you make a purchase or sign up for those services.

Independence of Professional Judgment

While we may earn commissions through affiliate relationships, our professional valuation services and recommendations are based on recognized methodologies and industry standards. We do not allow affiliate relationships to compromise the objectivity or quality of our professional work. Our valuation conclusions are independent and based solely on appropriate analytical techniques and available evidence.
