Maximos Score Methodology

The Maximos Score is a weighted composite assessment of private market opportunities. It combines 10 independently scored dimensions into a single 0–100 score with a letter grade (A–F). Each dimension is fully transparent — every point is traceable to a specific input, and the contribution of each factor is shown alongside the total.

The score is designed for use in deal screening, portfolio monitoring, and IC preparation. It is a structured, rules-based assessment — not a prediction of returns or a recommendation to invest. It measures the strength and completeness of available evidence about an opportunity.

The Maximos Score does not predict financial returns, probability of exit, or fund-level performance. It does not assess management integrity, legal risk, or regulatory exposure beyond what is detectable from public signals. It does not replace human judgment — it structures and surfaces evidence to support it.

The score is not a credit rating, a recommendation, or an offer to buy or sell securities. No model output from Maximos should be interpreted as investment advice.

Each dimension receives a normalised sub-score (0–100). The total is computed as:

Weights are fixed for V2 and sum to 1.00. They reflect the relative importance each dimension carries in a private market diligence context. Weights are not dynamically adjusted per deal — this ensures consistency and comparability across the portfolio.

To prevent inflated scores based on thin evidence, two hard caps are enforced:

These caps are always shown when active. Users can see exactly which evidence gaps are limiting the score and what data would be needed to lift the cap.
