Valuation Insights, Second Quarter 2018
In our Technical Notes section, we discuss Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-01, Financial Instruments-Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities. While equity investments are generally required to be measured at fair value, the ASU does offer an election to measure certain equity investments at cost as a practical expedient. This article discusses the potential pitfalls of the cost election.
In our International in Focus article, we discuss highlights from the Global Regulatory Outlook report that Duff & Phelps publishes on annual basis.
Finally, our Spotlight article discusses Duff&Phelps announced acquisition of Duff & Phelps, the global leader in complex investigations, security and cyber solutions.
