Hire a valuation expert in Greece and Cyprus
A number you can defend: a method matched to the business, assumptions on the record, and a range that says what would move it.
Somebody always has a number in mind: the founder who built the company, the sibling buying the other out, the investor arriving with a term sheet. A valuation expert replaces that number with an argued one: a method chosen to fit the business rather than the template, assumptions documented so the conclusion can be defended, and a range honest about what is evidence and what is judgement. The occasions in Greece and Cyprus are familiar: a transaction, an exit, a fundraising conversation, a shareholder discussion that needs a basis, an internal decision that will be examined later.
The valuation experts on Hellenic Talent come from Big 4 valuation and transaction services teams, from corporate finance boutiques, and from PE and banking roles where their numbers were taken apart by the other side. They have valued companies, stakes, and assets across Greece and Cyprus, from family businesses preparing a generational transfer to the portfolio companies of PE funds.
What does a valuation expert actually do?
- Choose the valuation approach to fit the business and the purpose, not the template on the shelf
- Normalise the numbers first: owner compensation, related-party arrangements, one-off items, and the other adjustments private companies here need
- Build the analysis on assumptions that are written down, sourced, and individually defensible
- Test the conclusion from more than one direction, so the number does not hang on a single method
- State a range and what moves it, rather than a point estimate dressed as certainty
- Present and defend the work to a counterparty, a board, or a family, and revise it when a challenge lands
How to choose the right valuation expert
What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.
Numbers challenged by outsiders
Has had valuations tested by counterparties, auditors, or investment committees, not only filed.
Defends the method chosen
Explains the choice of method in plain language and can say why the alternatives fit less well.
Fluent in local accounts
Knows how private companies in Greece and Cyprus actually report, and what must be normalised before any method applies.
Documented to stand alone
Documents the work so it can be handed to a lawyer, an auditor, or the other side without the expert in the room.
Names the lower number
Willing to give you a lower number than you hoped for, with the reasoning attached.
