The discount for lack of marketability is one of the largest and most important adjustments made in the valuation of a privately held business. It is crucial to understand that an investor purchases the privately held interest at a discount to increase the rate of return on the investment. This increased rate of return offsets the additional risk the lack of marketability of the investment causes. This webinar will discuss how to use this concept to quantify and support your discount for lack of marketability in a business appraisal for both minority and controlling interests.
