Introducing SVA : 4-Part Video Series

As our 4 part video series explains, the truth could not be further away. The valuation zones that are an integral part of our SVA charts are based not on statistics, but on the balance sheet structure itself. We don’t look for patterns in the price – we look at the balance sheet to define price itself.
