The Valuation Book
Synopsis
The Valuation Book contains the tools needed by anyone who wants to make a robust valuation of a business.
No detailed prior knowledge of business valuation is required – the book covers everything you need to know, including how to read relevant parts of company accounts and the valuation tools (including DCF and multiples) that are used by professionals.
Written by academics who are also practitioners, The Valuation Book provides a unique mix of theory and practical application. It is designed around the authors' experience of teaching thousands of people about valuation principles over the last two decades.
Short, accessible chapters with a consistent structure and layout allow readers to build up their knowledge step by step.
And the book is fully up to date, with accessible specialist chapters on integrating ESG into valuations, valuing immature companies, identifying flaws in valuation models, valuation for mergers and acquisitions, and more.
The Valuation Book is a comprehensive introductory valuation guide for investors, managers, accountants, lawyers and anyone else who needs to value a business.
