AN Valuations equity risk premium reports now available on FactSet
During the credit crisis of 2007 to 2009, we had observed that equity valuations based on market multiples in our home market (the Netherlands) consistently differed from valuations based on discount rates and forecasts (also known as discounted cash flow or DCF). We looked into this and discovered that discount rates appeared low. One of the discount rates component, equity risk premium (ERP), was not properly capturing market risk. This problem persists today in some countries and regions.
ERP’s that do not properly capture market risk can lead to mispriced investments and unsupportable valuation opinions. To solve this problem, we began investigating ERP’s in 2012 and continue to develop and refine our methods today. Our ERP findings are available in our equity risk premium research report series, currently available for the United States and the Benelux (Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg) region via the Research Reports section of our website and on select research platforms.
AN Valuations is proud to announce that our equity risk premium research reports are now available on FactSet. Entitlement requests for real-time access can be sent to entitlements@anvaluations.com. FactSet customers can also purchase our research reports directly on an embargoed basis.
