Independent expert's reportsProviding credible, independent advice for proposed transactions |
An Independent Expert’s Report (IER) provides impartial and credible advice to investors. It is presented clearly and concisely and contains:
-
a summary of the proposed transaction
-
a description of the purpose and objectives of the report, including a discussion of the basis for providing an opinion
-
an analysis of the businesses involved
-
a description of the industries in which those businesses operate
-
detailed analysis of the proposed transaction, usually including a valuation of one or more entities
-
an opinion as to whether the contemplated transaction is fair and reasonable or in the best interest of investors as a whole.
The primary purpose of IERs is to protect minority investors, in particular where there is a potential conflict of interest for their board or individual directors.
