Current Environment for Valuation
Standards
25
What Do Others Think?
• G20 – in 2009 recognised valuation as
being a contributory factor to the financial
crisis…
• …but asked accountants (IASB) to fix it!
• Scepticism around fair value measurements
under IFRS
• SEC comments 2005 and 2011
26
Comments from the SEC
(from Dec 2011)
“The broadening application of fair value …and the
2008 financial crisis have cast the spotlight on
valuation professionals. At last count, valuation
professionals in the US can choose among five
business valuation credentials available from four
different organizations, each with its own set of criteria
for attainment…... Risks created by the differences in
valuation credentials that exist today range from the
seemingly innocuous concerns of market confusion
….to the more overt concerns of objectivity of the
valuator and analytical inconsistency.”
27
Comments from the SEC (continued)
“One potential solution to consider is whether
there should be, similar to other professions, a
single set of qualifications with respect to
education level and work experience, a continuing
education curriculum, standards of practice and
ethics, and a code of conduct. One could also
contemplate whether a comprehensive inspection
program and a fair disciplinary mechanism should
be established to encourage proper behavior and
enforce the rules of the profession in the public
interest.” est.”

Regulatory reviews: greater
focus on audit evidence
supporting FV measurements
