Valuations of Derivatives
In recent years, derivatives have been widely used to provide flexibility in financing and investing. Due to complications in accounting for derivatives, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 133 in 2000. Under SFAS 133, derivatives and hedging activities must be recognized as assets or liabilities in the financial statement and measured at fair value.

For many types of derivatives, the valuation process is highly specialized. The process requires an understanding of the underlying asset on which the derivative is based as well as the terms of the specific contract. Our professionals are able to value all of a client’s derivatives and hedging instruments on a supportable basis.
