Five checks adapted from AAOIFI screening standards: business activity plus four balance-sheet ratios. All five must pass for ethical clearance. Every figure is arithmetic on public accounts, not judgement.
The Ethical ReadWhy It Falls Short, in Plain English
Evercore does not clear the screen at the business-activity stage. It operates in conventional financial services, which the screen treats as interest-based, so the financial ratios are not the deciding factor here.
Read as at 2026-11-05. It updates when the underlying figures move, and past reads are kept below.

The Business, in Plain WordsBanks thrive on deals but ethics draw the line
Picture a top dealmaker helping companies raise billions across New York and London. Evercore sits in that seat, posting 100 percent revenue growth, a 42 percent return on equity and 16 percent profit margins while trading at 14.7 times forward earnings.
We pass anyway. The ethical screen rules out capital markets firms outright, so strong numbers and a narrow moat do not change the verdict. The shares sit only 8 percent below our fair value with a buy-rated analyst target at 390, yet none of that overcomes the sector exclusion.
Cyclical deal flow can swing sharply when markets turn, and a narrow moat leaves little defence if competition intensifies. Currency and regulatory shifts add further pressure in this business. Analysis, not advice.
