CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS: AI & TECH WORKING GROUPCBV Institute is creating a small working group to explore AI and technology. We’ve seen explosive growth in AI tools this year, as well as the recent emergence of tools which aim to automate aspects of the business valuation process. These tools pose opportunities as well as potential risks. The objective of this working group is to gather insights from the CBV community about the variety of AI and automation tools available today that could impact the business valuation profession, and to help inform the Institute’s response and approach. Impacted areas of CBV Institute will include Education, Standards and Ethics. |

INSTITUTE ADOPTION OF IVSLast week, CBV Institute was pleased to announce the landmark decision of its Board of Directors to adopt International Valuation Standards (IVS) as an optional framework for business valuation practice. The decision to adopt IVS (which are developed and issued by the International Valuation Standards Council (IVSC)) as part of the Institute’s suite of acceptable practice standards for valuation, comes after a multi-year stakeholder consultation process. Starting immediately, CBVs have the option of using either IVS or CBV Institute’s existing valuation Practice Standards for valuation engagements (Standards 110, 120, and 130), thereby elevating the global reach of the CBV profession and solidifying CBV Institute’s commitment to a strong global valuation profession by making IVS acceptable for use in Canada. For any questions CBVs or Registered Students, we’ve prepared an FAQ document that is available at the link below. |
