What this site is

Acquisition Criteria provides information, tools and data. Figures are researched, sourced inline, and dated; tools show their assumptions. This is a free information site run by Joseph Ellul. When you send a brief, he reads it and replies to you himself; it is not passed to any broker or firm, and you pay nothing to ask. The site carries no advertising, no sponsored placement and no affiliate links, and no firm in a table has paid to be there. Every figure is read from the named firm's or authority's own public page on the date shown. Nothing here is tax, legal, regulated or investment advice; check the source before you rely on a row.

What this site is not

Nothing here is financial, legal, tax, medical or other regulated advice, and no tool output is a quote, an offer, or a recommendation to act. Results are estimates from the stated assumptions; confirm anything that matters with a qualified, authorised professional before acting. Where we introduce you to a provider, we act as an introducer only: we do not advise on, arrange, or recommend between providers, and we never handle client money.

Accuracy and liability

We work to keep every figure current (each table shows its last-updated date) but make no warranty that content is error-free. To the extent permitted by law, Joseph Ellul accepts no liability for loss arising from reliance on this site. Links to external sites are provided for sourcing; we are not responsible for their content.

Embedding and citation

You may cite this site's data with attribution (a link to the page cited) and may use the embeddable widget where offered, unmodified. Scraping that removes attribution, or republishing tables wholesale without a link, is not permitted.
