Eightcap: assessment
Explore the assessment model and the detail behind every component.
Five categories. One total.
Documented company records, risk-policy and practice resources, support materials and account-pricing information guide each category's relative emphasis. The five values are balanced to preserve the existing 91.0-point total, with a 20-point category cap and one-decimal rounding. These are editorial allocations of existing profile information, not independently measured service or safety results. Unconfirmed facts remain unconfirmed.

Administrator judgement
Replaces the calculated composite
Administrator-assigned total. This replaces the calculated composite for presentation; it is not the result of the 50:50 formula or an independent measurement.
Reason for this assignment
Administrator-directed score adjustment for Eightcap: 91.0 out of 100. The five category allocations are balanced to this requested total using the existing documented profile features. This is a discretionary editorial assignment; factual verification, account terms and measured-performance status are unchanged.
Recorded calculated total: 88.1 points. This historical value is retained without rescaling and is separate from the displayed administrator-assigned total.
