Price Verification
Value & Risk has developed a proprietary methodology, supported by state-of-the-art technology, to provide clients with a complete IPV solution that covers all asset classes and complies with current ESMA regulations.
ESMA regulation
ESMA has launched a Common Supervisory Action (CSA) with national competent authorities (NCAs) on the supervision of asset valuation rules under the UCITS and AIFM Directives.
ESMA underlines the importance of an independent analysis of the prices of the assets in the portfolio, in particular of less-quoted assets, to ensure that valuation methodologies are robust and based on reliable data and/or verifiable assumptions, in particular under stressed market conditions. ESMA recommends challenging prices provided by external data providers.
