- Benchmarking your assumptions;
- Modelling the financial performance and position of the project;

- Accurately estimating the project IRR and Equity IRR; and
- Performing scenario analysis.

Model Audit & Validation

Models that don't meet generally accepted modelling best practice are significantly more likely to contain errors.

Model Design - Building confidence for all parties
We build robust and reliable models using the core principles of our Modelling Best Practices which have been developed by the Global PwC Modelling Group.
We are a member of the Global PwC Modelling Group and have contributed actively to the development and implementation of these standards.
You need a financial model to
Monitor and forecast your business performance effectively;
Assess the impact of a disposal or an acquisition;
Raise funding from your bank or equity partners; and
Review your working capital requirements.
The consistent use of our Modelling Standards helps to:
- Improve clarity and transparency for buy-side investors and finance providers;
- Add credibility to the business growth story for sellers;
- Support creditor and bank negotiations with scenario and sensitivity analysis and returns evaluation; and
- Review deal model structure and integrity to increase certainty.
