## Why is there no Clarity Score for International Seafarers' Welfare and Assistance Network yet?

The Clarity Score is computed from full financial filing history. International Seafarers' Welfare and Assistance Network is on the official
register but outside the detailed-filing group we currently score (or awaiting its first filings), so
we show its official register record instead of a rating. A rating can be added when the charity enters
our scoring dataset with enough filing data. Payment never influences a rating.
