There has been considerable growth in and maturing of ideas surrounding shareholder value, value-based management and financial reporting. Here, in a single source, experts from a variety of professional backgrounds come together to provide a set of practices for valuation and corporate analysis.

This book will enable you to gain a rapid overview of the different aspects of valuation and put this into practice in your own business. It explains why there are such differences of opinion in matters relating to corporate valuations, where the limits of traditional accountancy are and where a more value-based valuation methodology can begin.

The book brings up-to-date the developments in thinking by institutional investors, experts in pensions, and professionals in corporate reporting. It incorporates insights gained from recent accounting mishaps such as Enron, and discusses the implications of Sarbanes Oxley and other planned changes in legislation. There are also in-depth analyses from the patient as well as from the consultant's chair helping you understand the practicalities of Value Based Management. The experts will guide you through a number of difficult valuation issues and describe best practice for you to use in your business.
