Which factors this industry fails most often
The rubric scores 19 factors. A factor counts as failed here when a site scores below 50 out of 100 on it. The last column is how many audits each rate was calculated from. Question Coverage & FAQ Presence and Media Accessibility are not scored on every kind of page: a rankings table or a paginated index has no question to answer and no image to caption. E-E-A-T Signals, Citation-Worthiness and Question Coverage & FAQ Presence lean on English-language patterns, so on a page written in another language they are scored out of a smaller total. Those rows therefore leave out every audit of a page the factor was not scored on the same scale, and every audit that did not record enough about the page for us to tell. Every other row counts every audit in this industry that scored the factor.

Where Wealth Management / Investment diverges from everyone else
Relative to the whole corpus, this industry is distinctively weak on AI Discoverability (+9 points), E-E-A-T Signals (+7 points), Crawlability & Accessibility (+7 points).
It is distinctively strong on Media Accessibility (-10 points), External Citations & References (-6 points), Structured Data Quality (-5 points).
AI Discoverability: fails on 43% of the 214 Wealth Management / Investment audits it was measured on
Rescoped to on-page machine-readability signals (semantic HTML, licensing clarity). The dead ai-plugin manifest check was removed and llms.txt stays informational only, because no major engine reads it.
E-E-A-T Signals: fails on 96% of the 67 Wealth Management / Investment audits it was measured on
No study tests author bios as a causal AI-citation lever; the real authority channel is off-site brand footprint. On-page bylines and dates are kept as best-practice hygiene at reduced weight.
Crawlability & Accessibility: fails on 53% of the 214 Wealth Management / Investment audits it was measured on
The strongest technical factor: blocking a visibility crawler verifiably removes a site from that engine's answers, and OpenAI documents this directly. Scoring uses a bot-class matrix so only visibility-bot blocks count against the score; training-bot blocks are a policy choice reported neutrally.

How to read this
- What the sample is. The 214 domains we have audited and classified as Wealth Management / Investment. That is a sample of the industry, not a census: it is the set of sites our crawler has reached and scored, and it carries whatever bias that selection has.
- Rubric version 2026-08-13. Every figure here comes from audits scored on this single rubric generation. Scores from different generations measure different things, so they are never mixed. Compatible generations: 2026-08-13.
- Why there are no company names. These are aggregates. We do not publish which domains sit at the bottom of a distribution, and the queries behind this page cannot return a domain name.
- Publishing floor. We publish an industry only once it reaches 100 audited domains, and a factor's failure rate only once 30 audits in the industry count toward that factor. Below either floor the number would move with a handful of sites, so we withhold it.
- What the audit can and cannot see. This audit measures citation readiness: how easily AI engines can crawl, extract, and quote these pages. It cannot see the off-site brand footprint (mentions, reviews, third-party coverage) that gates whether AI engines retrieve a brand at all; Kuroma's visibility scans and off-site signals track that side.
