There are a myriad of reasons for obtaining a Fair Market Value [FMV], Venture Capital [VC} and/or Investment Banking [IB] funding appraisal engagement:

  • Outright Selling-Buying
  • Partnership and Associate buy-in / buy-out
  • Mergers and Acquisitions
  • Organic growth tracking
  • Hospital integrations
  • Private and public reporting
  • Financing and Venture Capital
  • Estate and Tax Planning

The new Guidelines replace, amend, and consolidate the Vertical Merger Guidelines and Horizontal Merger Guidelines, which were published in 2020 and 2010, respectively.
