The ALIGN Framework

What your Score
assesses — and why each dimension matters.

Every question in your Scorecard maps to one of five dimensions that determine whether your investment infrastructure can support the deals you’re pursuing — particularly in cross-border and emerging market contexts.

Each dimension also has a two-question Cross-Border sub-section that produces a separate score — telling you specifically how your infrastructure holds up when capital moves outside your primary geography.

01
Deployment Clarity
Investment thesis, deal parameters, pipeline management, DD structure, and deployment timeline readiness
+ Cross-Border Sub-Section
02
Governance Literacy
Governance assessment frameworks, red flag identification, post-investment accountability, regulatory risk evaluation
+ Cross-Border Sub-Section
03
Deal Evaluation Process
Deal sourcing standards, IC structure, financial modelling rigor, exit pathway analysis, documentation quality
+ Cross-Border Sub-Section
04
Risk Tolerance Alignment
Risk categorization, portfolio consistency vs. stated profile, concentration and liquidity risk management, macro responsiveness
+ Cross-Border Sub-Section
05
Founder Assessment Capability
Team alignment methodology, resilience evaluation, cultural fit assessment, vision vs. execution distinction, use-of-funds scrutiny
+ Cross-Border Sub-Section
