Training Course Content

Introduction

As is the case with many types of advice, share and business valuation has become more and more complicated, while the penalties for getting it wrong are on the increase.

Through the use of real valuation cases and examples, this seminar will deal with the differences between the various bases of value, and importantly, what they mean in valuation terms, and when and where they will apply. It will deal with many of the vagaries of even the well-known valuation methodologies and techniques. It is often easy to fail to identify where value really lies.

Whether for tax or non-tax valuations, this seminar will help attendees avoid many of the traps for the unwary.
