New York, NY

Posted Feb 2, 2018 - Requisition No. 64959

Out of the millions of securities that exist, most are thinly traded and difficult to price. Traditionally, a few broker quotes were sufficient to justify value. Regulators now understand the need to increase rigor and transparency when establishing fair and independent asset evaluations.

The entire enterprise benefits from the consistency of Bloomberg's high-quality data when front, middle office and operations all work with the same information. Risk committees will appreciate BVAL's ability to not only provide defensible pricing but also to help identify, measure, monitor and manage valuation uncertainties particularly during volatile conditions. Accounting teams can expect to see market data inputs for exactly how prices are derived. And senior executives will obtain a greater sense of control over their valuations through the transparency BVAL provides, easing concerns about valuation defensibility.
