Business Valuation Report Peer Review—Case Analysis In Person (CAP)

November 13, 2017
The Profession's First and Only Business Valuation Report Peer Review

The peer review of valuation reports offered through the Case Analysis in Person (CAP) sessions provides authors of valuation reports with perspectives from like-mined valuators. The valuation reports are reviewed and discussed in a round table format with particular emphasis centered on whether or not the critical elements of the valuation report are sufficiently addressed and meet professional standards guidelines, while also identifying strengths and weaknesses of the report relating to overall readability, credibility, and persuasiveness. These interactive sessions are ideal settings to engage in a discussion with your peers about the potential risks to a valuator’s credibility by issuing reports that do not meet professional standards and reporting requirements.
