Valuation Best Practices

The IVC is a unique platform for accessing the latest trends in valuation, understanding new valuation standards and methodologies, meeting the valuation profession’s global leaders. It is an international knowledge exchange and a key way to maintain the dialogue with your fellow valuers. These factors are critical for the future development of the profession.

The bi-annual conference that will now be available for attendance both in-person and online, has been enhanced by our website content, providing you with access to the publications made available by the supporting organizations, conference speakers, and attendees.
