Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Banking & Open Finance regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.

  detail: First Digital markets "Open Trust APIs" with seven named capability areas (onboarding, KYC/AML, account information,
    instruction initiation, reporting, webhooks, SSO) but the product page carries no reference, no base URL, no signup and
    no spec — its only call to action is "Become a Client"; the client portal is Microsoft Entra sign-in and the public help
    center holds only end-user Client Portal articles.
