Summary
Valuation in private markets is under greater scrutiny than ever. Risk and finance teams are increasingly responsible for ensuring valuations are accurate, transparent, and audit ready. Beyond applying valuation frameworks, they must work closely with portfolio managers, communicate clearly with investors, and respond confidently to audit review.
This webinar series is designed for risk and finance professionals involved in valuation governance and reporting. It covers practical approaches to valuation across equity and debt portfolios, including working effectively with external valuers and managing audit processes. Across the series, participants will gain practical insights to strengthen valuation controls, reduce audit friction, and support a smoother, more defensible year end close.
