Krishnaveni’s research methodology

Krishnaveni’s research is based on a regulation-first approach emphasizing accuracy, transparency, and consistency of evaluations. Evaluation of brokers involves verified regulatory data, platform evaluation, and compliance with TradingCritique’s review criteria and standards.

She does not rely on competitor review sites, forums, or user opinions in her analysis. Any data that cannot be independently confirmed from primary sources is excluded or clearly marked as unverified. Comparison data between brokers is always cross-checked against each broker’s official disclosure and the relevant regulator’s register.
