Course description
Life Insurance: Embedded Value and Valuation (1 day)
Life insurance is a rather technical sector with specific additional voluntary disclosure called embedded value which should provide a better basis to assess performance. This course demystifies the embedded value concept and uses it as a basis to value a life insurance company. The course concludes with a review of insurance trading multiples and sum-of-the-parts valuation for multi-line businesses.

I like the training very much and the trainer taught us step by step. This indeed helps me to follow easily.
I think the trainer is doing an incredible job at explaining concepts, answering questions, and pitching at the right level (for me at least!). I'm learning a tonne. Keep it up!
Really straightforward and in-depth - thanks!
