Learning objectives
Business valuation is a field of research and practice particularly thriving in Italy and worldwide because always more frequently experts, managers, entrepreneurships and financial analysts have to valuate a business according to standards shared by scientific and practical communities.
Business valuation is a fascinating challenge for the business economics field of research, because very different information and competencies converge in it: in particular, the financial theory must find adequate support in the analysis of the strategic fundamentals of the firm object of valuation.
Anyway, the relationship between the fundamental analysis (and in particular the strategic analysis) and the financial techniques is often fragile or just illusory, because often the set of competencies (financial and strategic) are traceable to scientific communities too far.
The course aims to develop the competencies necessary for comprehending the way in which financial theories and models generally adopted in business valuation, could be adequately supported by the fundamental analysis, and in particular by the strategic analysis (strategic positioning and strategic planning), so as to reach to reliable and sustainable economic valuations.
