How to read these dimensions

The five dimensions are independent lenses on a company, not a single combined score. Read them together rather than in isolation: where one dimension scores differently from the others is often the most useful place to focus your own research. Each score is built from rules and weights you can adjust, so treat them as a transparent starting point for your analysis, not a recommendation to buy or sell.
