A well prepared valuation will often be an important and necessary basis for concluding on important strategic choices as well as other commercial and operational decisions.

Company law and other regulatory requirements often generate the need for valuation exercises. There can be company, accounting or tax issues that require or as a matter of prudence make it sensible to obtain an independent valuation as part of decision documentation.

In conflicts involving a financial component, whether it be for private arbitration or for the courts, questions of asset values and economic damages require calculations that in reality are related to estimates of value or the loss thereof.

Bravo has experience with all manner of valuations issues involving a wide range of businesses and industries. Our goal is to provide our clients with the necessary competence and insight to develop solutions tailored to purpose every time.

The art of valuation is more than just a matter of numbers and technique. The value of a company, an individual share, an asset or a business division can vary depending on the purpose of the valuation exercise and the assumptions made. The scope and form of presentation for a valuation must also be carefully evaluated in relation to purpose and how the valuation is to be used. Therefore, valuation requires insight and commercial understanding of markets and industries combined with specific competences within accounting and finance.
Bravo has over many years developed a solid technical framework and extensive practical experience and competence in all aspects of valuation. In sum, this ensures that our clients always receive well-founded, objective and independent valuation advice as the basis for important decisions.
