Agreement that valuations haven’t declined, but nuance and purpose are key. Still lots of optimism about the near future.
Fresh takes on valuation and #RIA M&A with no fluff. Great all-star panel at #MSUM23 with @AngieHerbers @AdvisorGrowth @DavidDeVoe1 @ADP_CEO

“Valuation should have a purpose. The purpose could be to sell your firm, change control of it...
And the future of valuation should be dictated by the owner based on their business objective.”
