Webinar Description
This webinar will provide the basics on how to use the Nonmarketable Investment Company Evaluation ("NICE"). The origin and theory behind the NICE Method will be explained but this will be less than 25% of the webinar's material. We will run through a generic application and describe the key points of the model. This will be followed by several examples which show how the model handles variances in the key components. At the conclusion of the webinar, an experienced appraiser will be able to use the model. The ASA is currently setting up a NICE advisory team to assist users with the use of the model.
