How Rankings Work
Understand our methodology for comparing and ranking brokers on Brokerfind.
What Our Rankings Mean
Our broker rankings use a weighted 1โ10 editorial model. Scores change when regulation, pricing, product access, or platform terms materially change.
Ranking Factors
Regulation and client protection carry 30% of the score.
Fees and execution cost carry 20% of the score.
Platform quality and trading tools carry 15% of the score.
Market access carries 15%, while transparency and user-fit risk controls carry the remaining 20%.
What Does Not Influence Rankings
- Affiliate partnerships do not affect ranking positions.
- We do not accept payment to influence rankings.
- Editorial decisions are independent of commercial considerations.
Sponsored placements, when present, are explicitly disclosed. Sponsorship may influence only a platform's position in the comparison table, never the platform's rating, review verdict, or editorial evaluation.
Why Rankings May Change
We regularly review our methodology and update rankings based on changes in the market, new regulatory requirements, or user feedback.
