Valuation Consulting | Economics | Modeling and Business | Research Facilities | Publishing Services
Valuing all or part of a business requires understanding and analysis of a variety of complex factors. These include both detailed technical knowledge of value drivers and in-depth industry expertise.
It also requires input from a variety of specialist advisers who need to understand the value drivers relevant to a particular industry sector alongside the broader strategic aims of the business.
In the event of a merger, acquisition or alliance it is vital to understand the value likely to be created through the transaction.
The decision to restructure all or part of a business needs to be informed by a comprehensive understanding of the value of every aspect of the business.
In the event of a dispute, an independent valuation is likely to help resolve issues swiftly.
Operating under an international perspective with deep local industries knowledge means that an understanding of the issues driving valuations in different countries is essential. Applying a common methodology across all countries generates a more reliable view of an international business’s value.
Economic analysis plays a key role both in the commercial world and in public policy.

Businesses entering a new market or developing a new product or service must consider a wide range of complex factors. Not least of these are the economic assumptions underpinning a strategy.
A complex range of economic factors need to be analysed before the launch of a new business venture. Competitors and customers, sources of revenue and the likely position of the competition authorities are just some of the most prominent considerations.
Addressing a new market means building an understanding of the many different strands that influence the relative strength and weaknesses of an economy. Macro-economic considerations need to be taken into account alongside specific and detailed analysis of the potential market for a particular product or service.
Building the models to support a new business strategy draws on a range of complementary skills and knowledge. Advanced econometric models and quantitative analyses need to be constructed alongside specific and in-depth industry knowledge if they are to provide market insight.
Sayco’s services to support business planning combine advanced technical resources with commercial awareness based on in-depth direct experience of specific industry sectors.

On 2007, Sayco fully funded and sponsored development of a project for the European Business School of the European Union in Cambridge UK (EBS), which working with the BIS finished development of a state-of-the art business, economics and finance sciences research centre to provide BIS researchers with useful available information to develop business intelligence final products.
This research centre’s information selection has been carefully performed by a world class business specialists’ team, to meet practically any business academic programme information research requirement and any business practice information needs around the world, no matter what industry, subject or region a business is related to.
Though access to the Business Research Centre’s Collections full content is reserved to in-house researchers’ team, the Research Centre grants open access to Sayco’s clients and EBS’ students to 3586 Academic Journals’ full content of 200,048 academic articles for research and business enhancement purposes.
On July 2008, in close collaboration with the European Business School, Cambridge UK (EBS), the BIS published the first issue of the Business Intelligence Journal (BIJ), which provides worldwide exposure to selected academic work developed by BIS researchers, researches from all over the world working for other entities, EBS’ students and academicians, as well as business community members by publishing their papers.
The BIJ has been qualified by SPARC Europe (The Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition) as a high quality scientific and academic content publication, and in August 2008 has been included in the Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ), which is managed by the Lund University Libraries of Sweden, to be published and distributed worldwide as an open access publication through the Internet, as a semiannual publication, peer reviewed and edited by members of the Management Sciences Staff at the European Business School in Cambridge, UK.
The BIS will gradually increase this Journal’s frequency and will lounge new Journals publication, as it may be required by the volume of research works admitted into publishing.
Additionally, by 2009 the BIS will lounge publishing services of books written by business management science’s authors, some of which are currently under revision by the BIS Books Collection Editorial Committee.
