Methodology

How firms are ranked

Each firm receives a score out of 100 built from five weighted components: verified client reviews (30%), professional credentials such as ASA, CVA, ABV, CFA, and MAFF (25%), the depth of services offered relative to the category (20%), the firm's operational scale (15%), and years in business (10%).

The score is refreshed whenever a review is approved or firm data changes, and overall ranks are recomputed on a schedule so movement reflects real changes, not noise. Within a category or service, we re-rank using the same score restricted to firms that actually offer that work.

Rankings cannot be purchased. Featured placement in the directory is clearly labeled and never affects rank.
