Until this date the page also carried: a province score per asset (the "IC composite"), a severity grade on each ACLED count (LOW to CRITICAL), Afrimintel-assigned materiality tiers against the IFC Performance Standards, the World Bank ESF and the AfDB ISS, a counterparty-eligibility table, and a section of editorial observations. Most of those cells were labelled INF (Inferred), INF-PROP or PEND, which are not states of the Quality Standard. All of them were Afrimintel's own judgements: grades, tiers and eligibility calls. The platform records what the filings say and whether they agree; it does not issue grades or verdicts. They are withdrawn, and described on the audit log.
What remains above is Sourced, Derived or Absent. A cell marked "not yet verified" is Absent: the figure has not been checked against its primary document. Afrimintel publishes no discount rate or risk premium for these assets; each issuer study states the rate its own NPV is reported at, and the reader applies their own.
