The FXCN score combines 5 weighted dimensions: Regulation 30%, Risk control 20%, Transparency 20%, Reputation 20%, Disclosure 10%. As of 2026-08-16, 2/5 dimensions have enough public data to assess; not yet assessed: Risk control, Reputation, Disclosure. Unassessed dimensions stay at the base score of 50 — they neither add points nor trigger the "any dimension too low" downgrade. We would rather flag a gap than fill it with a guess. Every individual point adjustment is listed in the evidence table above.
Scores are computed automatically by a 100% open-source algorithm from public regulatory data — anyone can reproduce the exact score locally. Advertising never affects any score; see our methodology and revenue disclosure pages. Methodology
