The latest edition of the IVSC’s International Valuation Standards became effective yesterday 31 January—and members will soon have easier online access to the newest (and previous) versions. This is thanks to IVSC’s new IVSonline service.

The business valuation sections of the new IVS are relatively unchanged from the previous update, but IVSonline also provides further supporting materials and summaries of the key changes between versions, translations, and “bases for conclusions.”

The plan is that existing IVSC sponsors and subscribers will have free access to the new platform, though new passwords and a “unique sponsoring code” are currently required.
