Scenario-Driven Valuations: Navigating Uncertainty with Confidence

Thursday 15 May, 2025

Summary:

In today’s volatile market environment, alternative asset managers are expected to respond to change not just quickly, but strategically. Valuations have evolved from a quarterly checkbox into a daily imperative, shaping everything from fund performance and investor communications to risk mitigation and capital raising.

In this webinar, hosted by IVSC member organisation, 73 Strings, on Thursday, 15th May, we’ll explore how modern valuation practices are evolving to meet today’s volatile markets and why exclusively spreadsheet driven models are no longer sufficient.

We’ll look at the vital role of scenario planning in this evolution. Through real time valuation intelligence, leading firms are gaining a competitive edge as they navigate shifting market assumptions and manage increasing volumes of fast-moving data.
