Wikirating:Experts board

[edit] What is the Experts Board?
The Experts Board on Wikirating is a group of worldwide finance experts from academic and business backgrounds. Their mission is to review and assess the credit rating methods applied by the Wikirating community and used on the Wikirating platform. Each member of the Board has agreed to put his expertise at the disposal of the Wikirating project and provide their experience in assessing suggested rating methods.
[edit] Why the Experts Board?
In the collaborative and crowdsourcing environment of the financial business, where everyone can participate, it is necessary to setup strong peer review processes, as well as a point system for the contributors.
[edit] What are the tasks of the board members?
- Once suggestions are made by any Wikirating user (for instance, the introduction of a new rating model, or of an additional rating factor to an existing rating model), these suggestions are assessed and, if reasonable, submitted by the Wikirating staff for vote on the Wikirating platform
- If the suggestions obtain a majority of votes from the Wikirating users (usually after a period of 1 month permitted for votes to be cast), the suggestions are then submitted to the Experts Board for a peer-review.
