Industry specialists have the ability to craft the most insightful questions about a subject company and to understand the corresponding impact on value. We do not attempt to identify which industries or situations warrant the use of a specialist, or who should make that determination. Rather, we challenge the valuation industry to collectively develop a standard for when a specialist is needed.born digitalarticlesengThis article (or a version of it) originally appeared in The Value Examiner, 2021 May/June issue, published by the National Association of Certified Valuators and Analysts® (NACVA®).
