Intensive company valuation

Valuation approaches and valuation for use in practice

This training is held in German.
The realistic and market-oriented valuation of a company/part of a company in the event of a sale, investment or succession is highly complex. However, it is essential for reliable decision-making. This training will provide you with a sound overview of the valuation methods currently in use and their relevance in practice. You will carry out calculations based on a real case study and go through the process from searching for data on the internet and interpreting it to determining the company values and the various cash flows. You will examine the role and interaction of the people involved as a success factor in a valuation. You will be ideally equipped for your practice.

Tip: Book the Due Diligence in Practice training as an ideal complement to this event. The two seminars take place on consecutive days!

By completing both seminars, you automatically complete the certified M&A professional course and receive a corresponding certificate.
