Addressing Valuation Issues in Shareholders Agreements 

Sep. 15, 2026
Toronto ON


Ontario Bar Association and Chartered Business Valuators Institute PROGRAM
 
5:00 PM to 6:30 PM

Do you use the same valuation clause for every shareholders agreement? Is it considered a boilerplate clause that defers the details to be addressed at a later date by the valuator? If so, you may be missing the opportunity to best protect your client and may be leaving some blanks to be filled in by the valuator in a way that neither you nor your client expect. 

Join us as we bring together legal and valuator perspectives for a practical discussion on addressing valuation issues in shareholder agreements. We’ll unpack key valuation issues and best practices, including:

  • Standards of valuation
  • Value definition/determination
  • Assumptions and criteria to be considered
  • Triggering events 
  • Valuator selection
  • Valuation level of assurance to be used
  • Minority discounts
  • Anticipated impacts of different approaches on parties depending on the circumstances


Learn about issues that you can deal with in advance rather than leaving them to chance. Gather valuable insights on handling these issues effectively, alongside essential business strategies.
