The question of ‘Value’ consistently underpins the decision-making process of boards, management, investors and other stakeholders. Our specialist Valuations team provides value related advice, assisting clients in managing value throughout the business cycle in circumstances relating to M&A transactions, financial reporting, tax, litigation and management strategies.
M&A is one of the major aspects of the corporate finance world. At M&A – Fixed Asset Valuations (Plant & Equipment) we help clients with asset intensive businesses value their plant and infrastructure for financial reporting, stamp duty, tax and strategic management purposes. One of the most exciting parts of the valuation of infrastructure assets is undertaking site visits to understand the business operations, condition assessments and discussions with engineers. Our team has inspected assets across the APAC region, Europe, the Americas and Africa in the recent past.
