IVS Agenda Consultation 2024
The IVSC’s 2024 Agenda Consultation is now closed. We would like to thank all stakeholders who provided feedback to help shape the future of the International Valuation Standards (IVS).
This triennial consultation invited input on key valuation topics critical to the ongoing development of IVS, with responses received from valuation practitioners, Valuation Professional Organisations (VPOs), financial institutions, investors, academics, corporations, regulators, and others across the valuation ecosystem.
The IVSC has now published a summary of responses and the updated IVS Agenda for 2025–2028, which sets out the key areas of focus for the IVSC’s Technical Boards over the coming years.
Overview
The Agenda Consultation document highlights several key themes for consideration:
- Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG): Recognising the growing importance of ESG factors in valuation, this topic explores how these elements impact valuation processes and the need for additional standards.
- Technology in Valuation: With rapid technological advancements affecting valuation practices, this theme focuses on the incorporation of technologies such as machine learning, data processing, and automated valuation models.
- Valuation Risk: Addressing the management of valuation risk, this theme emphasises the procedures and controls necessary to ensure that valuations are appropriate for their intended use.
The document also outlines, and seeks feedback on, additional topics that may be considered for future revisions of the IVS, ensuring that the standards remain relevant and comprehensive.
