The Exit Planner’s Guide to Increasing Corporate Value:
How to become an intangible capitalist
Mary Adams will be appearing at a breakfast meeting of the Boston Exit Planning Exchange (XPX) on September 30 at Babson College. The focus of her talk will be:
Today, roughly 75% of the value of the average private business is intangible—invisible
in financial statements and not well understood, even by those inside
the organization. Exit Planners, like their clients, are handicapped by
their business education and tools, which were optimized for the
factories of the industrial era. To maximize the value of a business,
you need new tools that focus on intangibles.
What does Intangible Capital mean to the advisors of business owners?
- Corporate and M&A Attorneys have new challenges when documenting and protecting their clients.
- Consultants focus on value for clients need the tools to zero in on and improve performance and corporate value.
- Investment Bankers and Business Brokers want to
present their clients in the best light possible so they must understand
and explain the key intangibles driving corporate value to potential
partners and acquirers. - Financial Advisors who want to better understand
their client’s business need to gain a whole new vocabulary around the
strength and sustainability of the business and why. - CPAs need to embrace these new concepts to help plan for, track and measure investments and returns on intangible capital.
