Webinar: Developing the Disount Rate for Lost Profits Claims
During this webinar presentation, Roger Grabowski will help us understand the difference between a discount rate for a business and one appropriate for a lost profits claim. Participants will learn the nuances of data sets available for developing discount rates and how to match the risk of the lost profits. Lastly, we’ll aim to identify and avoid the common errors made by practitioners in developing discount rates for lost profits claims.
