HKA experts contribute two chapters to Global Arbitration Review: The Guide to Damages in International Arbitration; Edition 6 

Forensic accounting and commercial damages experts Anthony Charlton, Partner, Jana Lefranc, Principal and Sophie Munson, Managing Consultant, were privileged to author two chapters in the sixth edition of the Global Arbitration Review’s The Guide to Damages in International Arbitration.

Anthony Charlton discusses The Applicable Valuation Approach, in Part III: Approaches and methods for the assessment and quantification of damages.

Anthony covers:

• How to value business assets?
  When valuing assets or a company, it’s advisable to consider all available valuation approaches. The three main options available to you.
• Comparing approaches to valuation
  Valuing financial assets or projected business profits can be complex, and your choice of valuation approach can be complex, too.
• How to make a robust valuation
  When valuing assets and companies, you’d be well advised not to rely entirely on one valuation approach.

Jana Lefranc and Sophie Munson explore Damages Relating to Environmental, Social and Governance Issues (ESG) in Part IV: Damages issues in specific industries or that cut across industries.

They discuss:

• ESG factors are increasingly impacting valuations and, therefore, damages assessments.
• Reflecting ESG-related risks and opportunities in valuations.
• ESG impacts on damages claims and ‘stranded assets’.

The guide is free to download directly from GAR’s website. GAR’s Damages in International Arbitration Guide is designed to help all participants in the international arbitration community understand damages issues more clearly and to communicate those issues more effectively to tribunals to further the common objective of assisting arbitrators in rendering more accurate and well-reasoned awards on damages.
