The International Valuation Standards Committee (IVSC) has just issued a call for applications to several of its boards.  “Suitably qualified candidates” should apply online for vacancies to the Board of Trustees, the International Valuation Standards Board, and the International Valuation Professional Board.  Deadline for receipt of applications is May 9, 2008.

In addition—and in coordination with its restructuring effort, the IVSC has broadened its membership beyond national professional valuation institutes to include valuation companies, government, valuation end-users, academia, and others with an interest in setting valuation standards.  Those who wish to apply for IVSC membership and/or for its Board vacancies should visit the website.  The next meeting of the IVSC is May 20, 2008 in New York City, followed by a Manhattan roundtable the morning of May 21st to discuss responses to its Discussion Paper on intangible asset valuation.  Attendance is limited to those who pre-register; for further details, contact the IVSC executive director: mtissier@ivsc.org.
