     <title>Business Valuation Firm Highland Global Announces the Release of the 2nd Quarter 2007 Update to &quot;Discount Statistics of Closed-End Funds&quot;</title>
     <link>http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/08/prweb546621.htm</link><description>   <![CDATA[ <P>Highland Global Business Valuation principal Robert M. Clinger III is pleased to announce the release of its 2nd Quarter 2007 Update to its quarterly research on &quot;Discount Statistics of Closed-End Funds.&quot; Selecting an appropriate discount applicable to minority interests in family limited partnerships is a challenge for financial analysts and business appraisers. The assumptions that the analyst makes are particularly important and may come under intense scrutiny should the value conclusions be challenged by the IRS or the Tax Courts. Given that the selection of the appropriate discount is based on the reasoned, informed judgment of the analyst, supporting the discount with appropriate comparable data or empirical evidence is necessary to avoid potential confrontations with the IRS and adverse financial ramifications for the minority interest holders, heirs, etc. As a reference point for selecting the applicable discount for a minority interest in a family limited partnership, the analyst may consider discounts associated with shares in publicly traded closed-end funds as well as the relationship between the volatility of the fund (the fund&#039;s beta), the focus/objective of the fund, and the characteristics of the interest being valued.

     <title>Highland Global Business Valuations Announces the Release of the 3rd Quarter 2006 Update to &#039;Discount Statistics of Closed-End Funds&#039;</title>
     <link>http://www.prweb.com/releases/2006/11/prweb477562.htm</link><description>   <![CDATA[ <P>Selecting an appropriate discount applicable to minority interests in family limited partnerships is a challenge for financial analysts and business appraisers.  Each quarter, Barron&#039;s reports statistics on publicly traded closed-end funds.  The statistics reported include the discount (or premium) of the market price from the fund&#039;s net asset value (NAV), the 52-week average discount or premium, the fund&#039;s objective, and various return measurements, etc.  Highland Global Business Valuations analyzes the data on closed-end funds as compiled by Barron&#039;s each quarter to provide research that may be useful in developing reference points for discounts applicable to minority interests in family limited partnerships or privately held entities that hold a diversified portfolio of financial assets analogous to closed-end funds.

     <title>Business Valuation Firm Highland Global Announces Publication of &#8220;Direct Market Data Method: Value Disparity Issues&#8221; by Robert M. Clinger III in The Value Examiner</title>
     <link>http://www.prweb.com/releases/2006/08/prweb430414.htm</link><description>   <![CDATA[ <P>Business Valuation Firm Highland Global, LLC is pleased to announce that Robert M. Clinger III, AVA has had the second part of his informative business valuation article, &#8220;Direct Market Data Method: Value Disparity Issues,&#8221; published in the National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts&#8217; publication The Value Examiner (July/August 2006 issue).  In Part II of the article, Mr. Clinger examines how value disparities may arise between the direct market data method and the single period capitalization method.  These disparities usually occur when the transaction data used in the direct market data method is not representative of fair market value but, rather, reflects strategic value to a specific investor, skewing the value indication higher.  Mr. Clinger then discusses three options for addressing the value disparities. (PRWeb Aug 30, 2006)</P>
