Risk Management in Business Valuation in the Context of Digital Transformation

Abstract

The paper deals with business valuation in unstable conditions of the external environment. Economic recession and the need for digital transformation is coming to the fore in Russia. As a result of this, the valuation of assets and business acquires additional complexity and issues related to effective risk assessment become relevant. The main objective of this paper is to offer non-traditional methods of risk assessment for business valuation at the moment. The qualitative and quantitative risk analysis will help to improve the quality of the assessment reports of the property in an unstable period. The paper focuses on the non-traditional methods of risk assessment (Monte Carlo method, game theory) which must be used in determining the market value of the object of assessment in the current time. A practical example of using the simulation modeling method is given in detail. Summarizing, the use of the simulation modeling method for calculating the market value of the appraisal object will provide additional (compared to the standard method) information and increase the reliability of the results. Moreover, in the period of the coronavirus pandemic, this paper becomes even more relevant and important, seeing as how uncertainty is becoming inherent in countries around the world. Thus, this study is of value to researchers in the field of economic modeling and appraisers across the globe.

The effect of maturity learn element in Enterprise risk management and corporate social responsibility on the level of digital transformation

“…The positive effect of ERM on digital transformation provides evidence that implementing ERM (particularly the learn element) will induce the level of digital transformation, as implementing ERM will reduce the uncertainty and risk in using digital technology to support the company's operations. This finding also indicates that companies that have implemented enterprise risk management (such as have developed preventive measures to minimize the negative consequences of risks), the companies need to build up digital competencies (Pupentsova & Gromova, 2021), and then the companies are more ready for digital transformation.…”

Development of an express risk assessment in tender participation for contracting construction organizations in civil and agro-industrial construction

“…For the successful implementation and execution of construction and installation work and to avoid cases of suspension or inability to complete the construction of a facility, it is important for participants in investment and construction activities to calculate the risks that arise at all stages of the implementation of investment and construction projects [1,2,3,4]. Traditionally, the risks of project implementation are usually calculated for customers who organize the construction process on behalf of the investor or developer [5,6,7,8]. At the same time, contractors, as the main participants in the construction process, are also interested in its effective implementation and completion [9,10,11]; they bear the risks of working with an unscrupulous customer, using low-quality technical documentation, undervalued work prices, etc., which ultimately can lead to failure to fulfill contractual obligations and bankruptcy.…”
