Across 209 audited domains we have classified as Wealth Management / Investment, the median AI Readiness score is 41 out of 100. That is level with the median for all 30,309 audited domains in the corpus.
How the scores are distributed
Half of the 209 audited Wealth Management / Investment domains score between 35 and 48. The corpus-wide interquartile range, across all 30,309 audited domains, is 36 to 49.
Which factors this industry fails most often
The rubric scores 19 factors. This table shows 15 of them: the rest were counted on fewer than 30 audits in this industry, which is too few to publish a rate from. 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. Media Accessibility is not scored on every kind of page: a rankings table or a paginated index has no question to answer and no image to caption. That row therefore leaves out every audit of a kind of page the factor does not apply to, and every audit that did not record a kind of page we could read. 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 (+8 points), Schema Markup Completeness (+6 points), Trust & Brand Signals (+4 points).
It is distinctively strong on Structured Data Quality (-10 points), Media Accessibility (-5 points), Answer Box Potential (-1 points).
AI Discoverability: fails on 44% of the 209 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.
Schema Markup Completeness: fails on 69% of the 209 Wealth Management / Investment audits it was measured on
Controlled tests show no AI-citation lift from schema.org markup, and Google states no special structured data is needed for AI features. Near-zero weight is kept only for classic rich results and Bing grounding.
Trust & Brand Signals: fails on 87% of the 209 Wealth Management / Investment audits it was measured on
On-page trust badges are untested as a class; the evidenced trust channel is off-site reviews. Retained for basic legitimacy signals (contact, policies, HTTPS) that remain sensible hygiene.
How to read this
- What the sample is. The 209 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 2026-08-02. 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: 2026-08-02.
- 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.
