Observations on Business Valuations in a COVID-19 Economy
Rescheduled from July 16
In this webinar, The MFA Companies’ valuation practice leaders Gregg Hamilton-Piercy and Glen McElwee will lead a presentation and subsequent conversation regarding key business valuation topics for estate planning purposes in these unique times.
They will provide a brief overview on business valuation in general, including valuation methodologies and “discounts” (control vs. marketability), and highlight some observations from the last few months of performing business valuation engagements during a pandemic.
The Essex County Estate Planning Council hopes that you will be able to join us for this timely and important event. A Zoom link will be sent to all registered participants the day before the event.
