RCEF core
Common identity, evidence and change-control fields.
RMCA methodology
Evidence must retain its entity, scope, source, date and limitation.
The RCEF methodology keeps the boundaries of a public statement visible from source review through publication, correction and renewal.
Why the method exists
Different sources answer different questions.
Company registers, regulator records, firm statements, contractual documents and complaint routes cannot safely be collapsed into one undifferentiated conclusion.
Defined scope
Every conclusion begins with boundaries.
A record says precisely what was reviewed and what was excluded.
Exact legal entity
Product or service
Customer type
Jurisdiction
Evidence period
Exclusions
Evidence character
Strength is described field by field.
Evidence character does not produce a universal firm score. One field can be independently corroborated while another remains self-declared or outside scope.
- 01Not evidenced within the reviewed scope
- 02Self-declared
- 03Documentary evidence reviewed
- 04Independently corroborated within the defined scope
- 05Outcome evidenced within a stated period and sample
