Then we usedit in intended approach. The expert opinions and objective data used to criteria ranking.An ANP was used to determining weight of criteria that merge in promethee method.After designing we tried to validate our approach with real data. The results show wehave 7% (simple mode) and 11% (enriched mode) return more than actual performance.Using of Porter five forces analysis for indentifying and verify industry criteria, toinclude some indices from corporate governance and technical analysis, weighting thecriteria and integrate them in the promethee are our research novelty.
