Business valuation in Hong Kong that stands up to your auditor.

Fees are quoted per engagement rather than from a rate card, because the work varies enormously. The main drivers are the number of legal entities and share classes involved, whether the valuation supports an audit or a regulatory filing, how many valuation dates are required, the quality of the financial information available, and the turnaround. A single-entity valuation for a private company audit is a different exercise from a purchase price allocation across a group. Send us the entity, the purpose, the valuation date and the standard, and we will come back with a fixed scope and fee.

For a straightforward single-entity engagement with complete information, a draft in one to two weeks is typical. Purchase price allocations, expected credit loss models and multi-date share-based payment work usually take longer because they involve more analysis and more auditor interaction. Year-end is the busiest period in Hong Kong, so engaging before your reporting date rather than after it materially improves turnaround. If you have a filing deadline, tell us the date in your enquiry.

Auditor acceptance depends on whether the valuer is independent and appropriately qualified, whether the methodology fits the standard being applied, and whether the assumptions can be supported with evidence. Valtech reports are prepared under an ISO 9001 certified quality management system and signed by directors holding credentials including CPA, CFA, FRM, MRICS and ABV (AICPA). We expect audit review as part of the engagement and respond to auditor queries directly rather than treating them as out of scope.

Both. A large part of the Hong Kong practice is private companies — family businesses, startups raising capital, SMEs preparing statutory accounts, and private equity portfolio companies. The team also serves listed issuers on HKEX filings and signs valuation reports for public disclosure. The methodology is the same; the depth of documentation is scaled to what the purpose requires.

Yes. The Hong Kong team works in English, Traditional Chinese and Simplified Chinese, and reports can be issued bilingually where a filing or an internal stakeholder requires it. A full Traditional Chinese version of this site is available from the language switch in the menu.

The Hong Kong office is at Unit 2106, 21/F, Futura Plaza, 111-113 How Ming Street, Kwun Tong, Kowloon. Valtech also has an office in Singapore, which matters when a Hong Kong holding company needs assets or subsidiaries valued across the region under one engagement.
