Subject Overview: |
With the increasing significance of legal (including intellectual property (IP)) knowledge (including technology), brand and other competitive intangible assets to the modern enterprise, the ability to reliably recognise and value these is becoming an essential element of enterprise valuation and financial performance and reporting.
