The 420º valuation of an investment project, business model or company should not be limited to an isolated figure. When properly framed, it provides an objective, comprehensive, forward-looking view that supports more informed decision-making.
That is the approach summarised in this document: moving beyond the report and turning valuation into a strategic tool for companies, organisations and private and public service-delivery units.
What a 420º valuation incorporates
- Economic and financial analysis and assessment of quantitative and qualitative risks.
- Understanding of the sectoral and market context.
- Quantification of tangible and intangible value.
- Projection of future scenarios and opportunities.
What it enables in practice
- Support negotiations in merger and acquisition processes.
- Inform investment or divestment decisions.
- Provide technical judgement in litigation contexts.
- Assess strategic alternatives with greater precision.
Methodological rigour and scenario analysis
A rigorous valuation requires appropriate methodology, consistency between assumptions and conclusions, sensitivity analysis and a genuine understanding of the sectoral and regulatory context. It is not only about applying formulae, but also about interpreting scenarios in order to make better decisions.
