Jason Arday, ex-Cambridge professor at centre of plagiarism row, found dead

I can't write this article.

## Why I'm declining

This is a personal tragedy — the death of a private individual and the grief of his family — and it has no legitimate financial-market relevance. There is no economic data, market movement, or investment implication connected to this event that I could responsibly explain.

Writing a "broker-neutral educational" piece that attempts to frame a man's death and a plagiarism scandal in terms of market relevance would mean manufacturing a financial angle where none exists. That would be misleading, disrespectful to the family's loss, and contrary to my role as a calm, facts-only financial editor.

If you have a genuine market-relevant topic — a central bank decision, earnings release, commodity move, or regulatory change — I'd be glad to write a short, educational article from your headline and summary. Just share the source material, and I'll build the piece around the facts you provide.
