The Method
The scoring model behind every seat.
Board Vault's method blends portfolio-fit AI, sector signal analysis, and partner-led curation. No black boxes — here is exactly how it works.
Portfolio Fit
We score sector, stage, governance format, geography and hours against your declared thesis.
Governance Load
HHI concentration risk, committee overlap, and fiduciary conflict flags.
Market Signal
Chair rotations, PE exits, listing events and governance-code shifts feed the score.
Human Curation
A partner reviews the top 5 every week — no fully automated introductions.
Confidentiality
Two-way NDAs. Nothing goes to a company without your explicit consent.
Post-Placement
90-day check-in, peer circle invite, portfolio balance review.
Score Anatomy
Every match is a weighted composite of six vectors.
Governance Principles
Six commitments we won't compromise.

- 03
Diversity of thought is a scoring dimension, not a checkbox.
- 04
Every company on Board Vault is UBO-checked before listing.
- 05
We publish anonymised placement metrics quarterly.
