This recently published guide offers the newest treatise on the theories, evidence, and techniques for determining discounts for lack of marketability (DLOM). DLOM is one of the most discussed topics in the business valuation profession with a historically wide divergence in how valuators approach it. This valuable, two-volume resource offers practical guidance and includes a compendium with analysis of more than 100 of the most important cases that have made it into the courts. Case reviews shed light on how judges have viewed experts' use of the relevant facts and economic principles to determine a DLOM.

"BVR is thrilled to offer the latest thought leadership on determining discounts for lack of marketability," said Sarah Andersen, Publisher at BVR. "In this new edition, John Stockdale, Sr. offers even more breadth on the topic with expended sections on the liquidity premium, increased coverage of restricted stock studies, and an expanded section on computational methods and models. This book is truly a must have for anyone who wants the latest in DLOM information."
