Axiom Valuation Solutions is a nationally recognized financial security and business valuation firm. Axiom has conducted valuation assignments for clients throughout the U.S., Europe and Asia. These assignments run the gamut from valuing angel and VC startups to mature private equity funded firms across just about every industry segment. Axiom is heavily engaged in fair value assignments for financial institutions in terms of fair valuing portfolio assets and liabilities as well as acting as an advisor and assessing whether internal transfers between funds meet the fair value standard. Axiom’s Co-founder and Chairman helped draft Financial Accounting Standard 157 as part of FASB’s Valuation Resource Group, an advisor group to FASB on fair value issues. Axiom has developed a series of state-of-the-art models to value complex financial securities. While fair value is an exchange price concept, in cases where pricing is infrequent and idiosyncratic, these models help determine the fair value range and whether the price is consistent with other observable market factors.
