Abstract

Simulation-based company valuations are based on an analysis of the risks in the company to be valued. This means that risk analysis is decisively important in a simulation-based business valuation. The link between risk measures, risk conception and risk axiom systems has not yet been sufficiently elaborated for simulation-based business valuations. The aim of this study was to determine which understanding of risk underlies simulation-based business valuations and how this can be implemented via suitable risk measures in simulation-based business valuations. The contribution of this study is providing guidance for the methodologically correct selection of appropriate risk measures. This will help with avoiding valuation errors. To this end, the findings were combined from risk axiom systems with the valuation equations of simulation-based business valuations. Only position-invariant risk measures are suitable for simulation-based business valuations.
