Last week’s BVWire reported on the results from our online survey that asked about BV practitioners’ top concerns. The detailed results as well as write-in comments are now available as a complimentary download. Our thanks to all of those who responded—and we’ll have another poll soon!

As a recap, 40% of respondents cite practice management as their biggest concern for 2016 (including issues such as competition, fee pressures, hiring, succession planning, and the like). The other concerns are: keeping up with developments in the profession (cited by 15% of respondents); expanding into new areas of valuation (12%); regulatory and standards compliance (10%); and litigation issues (5%). The “Other” category was cited by 19%, with the most prevalent answer related to business development and growth.
