"Industry News, Helpful Hint, & Upcoming Events" eNewsletter

October 10, 2023

This week's "Helpful Hint" is:

"Helping a client through the audit process"

Earlier this month, one of our clients contacted us as they were working through an audit process. We supported them by providing the nuances behind the financial data we provided as well as the applicable IRS regulations applied to the valuations. Ultimately, the audit agent praised our client for their due diligence and accepted the valuations.

Our clients can count on us being there if questions arise about our valuations, which we stand behind.

Last week's "Helpful Hint" was:

"Including CASH, and other user defined assets, in webappraise"

This week's Financial Market News is:

"Brace for 5% Yields After Long Bonds Melt Down"

Excerpt (from actual article):

Anyone looking for Treasuries to bounce back after September’s savage selloff has been severely disappointed. The combination of hawkish comments from Federal Reserve officials and a patina of strong, but second-tier data points, saw October begin with investors rushing for the exits. Yields spiked yet again, with the 30-year touching 5% for the first time since 2007 and traders bracing for the 10-year to reach that level within weeks.
