What to borrow
We could use an unusual chart type for a hot topic in our own data, keep the design polished and self labelling medium, and include a source line with our branding.
Careful
Do not over-read the below average quote rate or the medium design polish and self labelling, and do not assume the same numbers will apply to our charts.
Written by our analysis model from the measured numbers above, not by Visual Capitalist.
