“Not assessed” means we could not verify enough to score that dimension. It is shown separately and is not a negative finding.

The website buttons are not affiliate links and firms pay us nothing for them; they let the firm see that the visit came from Trading Trust Index, without saying who you are. The company you open an account with depends on where you live, so check it against the verified licences in the table.
