The training panel will also educate capital market professionals on how to avoid common mistakes in estimating terminal growth among a many other areas which will be covered during the workshop.
In 2011 the Institute together with Amba conducted two similar valuation boot camps which was a sold out event with top professionals from the capital market industry participating in the program.
