Ongoing changes to standards are requiring many of our clients to utilize independent valuation and risk management experts who keep abreast of the ever-changing regulatory landscape and can assist with quantitative modelling for the financial valuation and risk reporting required for non-traded, illiquid positions.

Auditors and regulators have required more stringent and transparent fair valuation processes since the financial crisis. Regulatory reporting standards attributable to financial valuations, disclosures and risk reporting processes continue to evolve as do what is deemed to be best practice risk management e.g. AIFMD, IFRS13, CRDIV, CRR, ASC 820, IAS 39, Solvency II, Basel, etc.
