Now in its eighth edition, this acclaimed volume continues to help corporate executives, bankers, students, and other financial professionals around the world gain a deep understanding of valuation as well as allow their companies to create and maximize economic value.

In the book, a team of veteran McKinsey & Company professionals walk you through the foundations of valuation, advanced topics like valuing high-growth companies and digital assets, and managerial topics such as corporate portfolio strategy and acquisitions. You'll also discover:
