There is a wide range of circumstances in which an independent opinion on valuation or expert determination is required. Each scenario demands specialist knowledge and the application of specific skills.
In commercial and investment arbitrations, independent opinions are often required on matters of law and the quantification of damages.
The need for an objective specialist to value assets or businesses is critical for organisations, stakeholders, courts, regulators, and shareholders. The nature and purpose of the valuation determine the methodology adopted by the expert. Independent valuation in different contexts requires specialised expertise and careful application of appropriate techniques. Common situations include:
Courts, regulators, shareholders, and businesses may, at various stages, require an independent specialist to value assets or assess financial or technical matters. The purpose and context of the valuation determine the approach adopted to provide a relevant and reliable opinion.
