I started this blog site with two objectives in mind.
First, I wanted to support the BVR/SPU Valuation Challenge by providing an
outlet for conversations about valuing asset combinations not traded on public
markets. These combinations can be anything from companies (new and old)
to divisions and business units of companies, potential spin-outs, joint
ventures, and similar asset groupings. Students and others learning or
thinking about this fascinating topic have questions—questions about the
competition itself, but more broadly, questions about conceptual and technical
issues in this field. Still others have answers to these questions, or at
least ideas that can contribute to a deeper understanding of the issues.
So I hope this can be a place for information exchanges, lively and otherwise.
The second objective is to feature the participants and
schools involved in the Challenge. What colleges and universities are
providing course work or independent study opportunities in asset valuation and
how are they doing it? What are the challenges involved in teaching and
learning in this field and what works best to transfer knowledge?
Your thoughts are welcome. I hope you join in!
