Arbitration services in trade and contracting

We work as arbitrators in a free capacity to resolve commercial disputes by peaceful means and before they reach the courts, and this means reaching a solution between the parties without the interference of the judicial authority or the police and travel bans and other measures that harm the reputation of the litigants – where we work in complete secrecy that allows the litigants to return to dialogue and business is normal. We have arbitrators licensed from international arbitration bodies specialized in business and contracting – they do their work professionally and professionally.

Many individuals prefer to present the disputes that arise between them – in which arbitration is permissible – to an arbitrator or an arbitral body. Among the reasons for their tendency to arbitration, and not submitting the matter to the judiciary due to the advantages they find in arbitration, are the following:

Arbitration is a confidential process

Arbitration enjoys privacy in that it does not take place through public formal procedures before traditional courts, in which anyone can be informed of their procedures.

Confidentiality in resolving disputes in sensitive issues between companies is a top priority for us at Panorama Consulting, and sensitive financial information and data related to the nature of the work are never publicly disclosed, as well as our keenness to avoid negative publicity and defamation of the parties, and this of course guarantees the parties to continue their good relations between them even after settling disputes.

Arbitration saves time

Arbitration is a fairly rapid process of dispute resolution in which the parties are heard and the dispute discussed immediately once the arbitrator is appointed without lengthening the formalities or procedures, while other alternatives are often slow and take longer due to red tape.

The arbitration process is also an immediate process in which the procedures are not referred to several other parties, but rather are dealt with quickly through a single arbitral tribunal. This is of utmost benefit in the event that neither party can wait for a long time and go through lengthy procedures.

We at Panorama Consulting guarantee businessmen and investors perfect time and people management in the best possible way.

Arbitration saves money

Arbitration not only saves time, but also saves money because its costs are limited to administrative fees, arbitrators’ fees, and lawyers’ fees, if any, which are lower compared to fees in the case of following traditional procedures. Arbitration is the most effective way to find a solution, regardless of the complexity of the dispute, starting with its clear and explicit method and ending with settling the dispute without the need to go through many stages and procedures, which may incur additional costs in the event of resorting to other alternatives to resolve the dispute. We at Panorama Consulting ensure that all of our clients receive competitive prices and high quality service.

Arbitration offers greater flexibility

Arbitration provides you with the ability to control the dates of the arbitration sessions to suit the needs of the concerned parties and their free times, thus giving them more space and freedom to start the arbitration procedures whenever they want, because the entire process is a flexible process, and the concerned parties have the right to agree among themselves on all major procedural issues such as the arbitration procedure through written documents or by oral hearings. That is, the arbitration parties, by agreement among themselves and coordinated by the arbitral tribunal, can determine the dates of the arbitration procedures and sessions and the various financial expenses and costs, leaving them to determine them and not impose upon them.

Appointment and selection of the arbitrator by the parties to the arbitration

An arbitrator or a group of arbitrators is not appointed except by agreement and consent between the parties, and the parties choose who will judge the dispute and a person they do not agree with is not imposed on them to decide a dispute related to them. Arbitration ensures quality and avoids the participation of any third parties who are not competent enough to resolve the dispute, by ensuring the selection of professional arbitrators with expertise in this field. Panorama Consulting is always working to update the list of expert arbitrators, to facilitate the arbitration process within the business environment that is constantly changing and this environment produces more opportunities, which may lead to the emergence of new professional risks.

Arbitration is a neutral, fair and independent process

Arbitration procedures should be impartial and impartial to any of the parties to the dispute, and there has always been an urgent need to develop such a concept and actually apply it on the ground. , and even personal, in the world of business and finance. From this standpoint, Panorama Consulting works to implement the concept of dispute resolution by impartial arbitration and to promote its spread through highly trained and skilled arbitrators, as well as being well versed in laws and various legislations, and wholly and completely impartial.

Judicial Guarding and Precautionary Measures

It is the placement of money from real estate or movable property around which the dispute arose, and one of the litigants does not have what the right of one of them overrides without the other, or there are conflicting evidence of ownership between the parties to the dispute, and it is threatened by an urgent danger during the course of the case before the court, so it is placed in an honest hand until the decision In the lawsuit, most pleading systems have tended to introduce receivership with this specificity under the term of precautionary custody. There are types of judicial custody that the honorable reader would know better: The first type: Precautionary custody: It is a temporary precautionary measure ordered by the judge based on the request of the litigants or one of them, and the assessment of the danger and its being urgent depends on the circumstances of each case, and on each case and the assessment of the two matters is left to the subject judge who considers the case And there is no control over it from the Supreme Court. The immediate danger is if there is a dispute over the ownership of the money, or its possession, and the remaining money is in the possession of the person in possession of it, and this leads to its loss or damage, or the loss of its proceeds. The danger is also represented in managing money such as family businesses in the event of the death of its owner and founder. The nature of precautionary custody or receivership is that it is a precautionary measure, and it is also a temporary measure that does not affect the subject, and therefore it is not an executive measure, or a final act or a means of pressure on one of the litigants who is in the position of the debtor until you push him to fulfill what is alleged against him, and it is also a temporary measure It remains with the persistence of the circumstances that necessitated it, and it will disappear with its demise, so it does not have the rule of continuation, and it is a procedure that does not affect the subject, and this means that the judicial receiver does not affect the subject matter of the case in anything, because it is not related to one party without another; And because it is a temporary rule, and it is common that if a dispute occurs between the partners, so that the share of those who have no control over the money is in danger, or if a dispute arises between the heirs over the division, or the dispute is over determining the share of the heirs, or liquidating and dividing the rights of the heirs, or over the management of The estate and some have requested its liquidation, especially if the bequeather has older children and others are very young and the adults have taken control of their bequeathed money in real estate, money or the management of the company, and the danger is if the rest of the partners fear that the money will remain in the hands of their partner who is threatened with insolvency. The jurisprudential character of the precautionary judicial receiver is that it is a ruling imposed by the judge on the money, according to which the receiver is a temporary guardian of the money, and in positive law he is in the capacity of a representative of the parties to the case, he has the right to manage the money placed in his hand, and then he is the representative of the one who appears to be the owner of the money after the dispute is resolved Thus, the effects of entrustment are valid, which is that the receiver is on behalf of an unspecified person, but he is able to be appointed by judicial authority, so that the actions of the receiver are related to representation in a judicial manner, and the receiver is directly responsible before the judiciary. The rights of the receiver are that the receiver is paid, whether it is a lump sum or a monthly salary according to the usual, and as estimated by the court or the parties to the case, unless he waives it, and often the waiver is not made unless the receiver is a family member and agreed upon between the parties. If he is from outside the family, then it is usual that he demands his dues, and he has the right to claim them if there is no stipulation for him, and this is in contrast to the agent and the depositor, who is not entitled to him unless he stipulates it; Because its building is a donation and is not required, it is not entitled to it except when it is stipulated, which is what contemporary laws have adopted. Understanding judicial procedures has become a matter of urgency in light of the tyranny of material matters and the large number of disputes between partners and heirs, including the concept of judicial custody and its most prominent provisions, especially in light of the weak human rights awareness among members of society.

And legal is ready to carry out the work of the judicial guard, whether authorized by the judiciary or at the request of the parties to the conflict, and this includes all the tasks assigned to the judicial guard.

Business Planning and Feasibility Analysis:

The feasibility study is conducted during the first phase of the project life cycle. This process aims at determining whether the project is viable (or doable), based on the analysis of its different aspects, including
·        Economic and financial feasibility: look closely at the resources that will be required to complete the project, and compare them to the expected returns. Doing so allows you to evaluate the profitability of your project.
·        Technical feasibility: think about the technologies available to your organization. Is it realistic to carry out this project? Would you need to acquire new equipment, or adapt existing technologies?
·        Operational and organizational feasibility: what are the organizational resources available to your business? Does it have access to the desired skills and knowledge? If not, could you train your employees, or would recruiting new staff be more appropriate?
·        Legal feasibility: check if specific legal requirements are applicable, for example, laws relative to personal data protection.
·        Commercial feasibility: identify the opportunities offered by your market, describe your potential leads and target customers. In short, conduct thorough market research to ensure your project is adapted to specific needs.
As always in the field of project management, these perspectives are to be analyzed in view of the delays, quality and deliverables expected for the project.
This study should include the objectives of the project and its timeline. This ensures it can later be used as a basis for the project manager during the next step, mostly throughout the project planning phase.
 
A good Feasibility Study helps to objectively decide whether to proceed with a proposed project. A Feasibility Study should have broad considerations when considering whether to undertake a new project. It should consider things such as technological limitations, the marketplace, your marketing strategy, staffing requirements, schedule and financial projections.
Other requirement for Feasibility Study:
1-Starting a new project in a need for licensing from local authorities, where they will ask for Feasibility Study.
2- A new or established project in a need for expansion, and in a need for more finance, bank and financial providers will ask for Feasibility Study.
3- Planning to buy an existing business, you are in a need for Feasibility Study.
Our work is:
Steps to Write a Feasibility Report
A preliminary analysis: This is like a pre-screening of the project. It helps discover the viability of the project as well as identify any roadblocks if any.
Scope definition: This step includes outlining the project’s scope as well as its potential impact on the organization.
Market research: This is an essential factor, as no project is begun without adequate market research. A thorough analysis of the existing market and competition is done to manage the project accordingly.
Financial assessment: In this stage, all the costs related to the project, including equipment, man-hours, the financial risks, and the benefits associated with the project are estimated and scrutinized.
Alternative solutions: Whenever any hiccups arise, the team should be well-prepared to come up with a solution. This is an integral yet dynamic part of a feasibility study.
Go/no-go decision: The final stage of a feasibility study is the course of action, in other words, whether the project is worth proceeding with or not.

Strategy without execution is a dream. And execution without a strategy is a nightmare
 Business restructuring (or organizational restructuring) is a process that can address a company’s unsatisfactory status quo in the constantly evolving market. It should be based on proper strategic planning, fueled by innovation, or it can be a tactical reaction to unexpected circumstances.
The business restructuring process typically involves diagnosis, planning and implementation. The diagnosis phase is similar to a feasibility study and includes assessing a variety of possible business scenarios. The planning stage requires the formulation of detailed operational and strategic plans. Implementation will be closely tied to the business restructuring plan that was approved by business owners and all other important stakeholders. Anticipate that the diagnosis and planning parts of the process will require a minimum of several months and often more than a year.
Notwithstanding the reasons that lie at the cause of challenges you are facing, the following symptoms indicate that a situation exists where our knowledge may be of useful to you:
§  There is a downturn in your market or shifting consumer preferences
§  There is excessive debt or poor liquidity
§  Company is trading at distressed levels
§  Corporate structure is no longer aligned with your business objectives
§  Units or subsidiaries are operating inconsistently with group strategy. There is a need to divest/sell-off some non-core operations
§  As business or financial stakeholder, you have concerns about the business and wish to appoint independent reporting accountants
§  As stakeholder in a distressed business, you need to manage your exposure
§  Capital structure needs to change
§  You need to enter into discussions with lenders
Strategy without execution is a dream. And execution without a strategy is a nightmare
Reasons for Corporate Restructuring
Corporate restructuring is implemented in the following situations:
·        Change in the Strategy: The management of the distressed entity attempts to improve its performance by eliminating certain divisions and subsidiaries which do not align with the core strategy of the company. The division or subsidiaries may not appear to fit strategically with the company’s long-term vision. Thus, the corporate entity decides to focus on its core strategy and dispose of such assets to the potential buyers.
·        Lack of Profits: The undertaking may not be enough profit-making to cover the cost of capital of the company and may cause economic losses. The poor performance of the undertaking may be the result of a wrong decision taken by the management to start the division or the decline in the profitability of the undertaking due to the change in customer needs or increasing costs.
·        Reverse Synergy: This concept is in contrast to the principles of synergy, where the value of a merged unit is more than the value of individual units collectively. According to reverse synergy, the value of an individual unit may be more than the merged unit. This is one of the common reasons for divesting the assets of the company. The concerned entity may decide that by divesting a division to a third party can fetch more value rather than owning it.
·        Cash Flow Requirement: Disposing of an unproductive undertaking can provide a considerable cash inflow to the company. If the concerned corporate entity is facing some complexity in obtaining finance, disposing of an asset is an approach in order to raise money and to reduce debt.
Characteristics of Corporate Restructuring
·        To improve the Balance Sheet of the company (by disposing of the unprofitable division from its core business)
·        Staff reduction (by closing down or selling off the unprofitable portion)
·        Changes in corporate management
·        Disposing of the underutilized assets, such as brands/patent rights.
·        Outsourcing its operations such as technical support and payroll management to a more efficient 3rd party.
·        Shifting of operations such as moving of manufacturing operations to lower-cost locations.
·        Reorganizing functions such as marketing, sales, and distribution.
·        Renegotiating labour contracts to reduce overhead.
·        Rescheduling or refinancing of debt to minimize the interest payments.
·        Conducting a public relations campaign at large to reposition the company with its consumers.
Strategy first
A strategy is about creating a long-lasting competitive advantage by focusing on key priorities to succeed. It can be written on a piece of paper only accessible by a company’s top management team or a clear template given to each and every employee to follow. An organizational restructuring process has to be rooted in corporate strategy. You cannot predict everything, but a strategic approach can help you react better. Wherever you plan to go, you should know where ‘north’ is. Tactical organizational restructuring can work and is sometimes necessary, but if you do not see the long-term vision on the horizon, you may end up in the wrong place.  
Being active or reactive
The proactive approach to reorganization is a virtue of market leaders. It is the way to change the rules of the game. Market leaders follow market trends, but also create them. Having strategic initiative is extremely important in any market, just like in war. All famous business leaders and military commanders were always prepared for constant attack and ready to restructure organizations/troops to address unforeseen problems. A reactive approach to reorganization is an adaptation to the actions of market leaders or to market developments, which is a strategy that often adversely impacts any company’s financial situation. Reactive companies usually act too late. However, it’s better to react late than never.  
Why Do Companies Restructure?
Examples of internal reasons behind corporate restructuring
  Profitability below expectations:
Stagnant or decreasing revenues,
Too low gross margin,
Too high operating costs,
Bad cash flow,
Over- or under-investment,
Productivity/KPIs below market standards,
High labour costs,
Unclear roles & responsibilities,
Poor internal communication,
Lack of leadership,
Bad design of processes,
Marketing budgets allocated ineffectively.
  Of course, there are some “easy” ways in which one can address the low profitability problem, for example, through headcount reduction or closing unprofitable stores/branches/facilities/countries. As large organizations tend to grow in an uncontrolled way, such cost cuts may help. Nevertheless, simple cost-cutting exercises may jeopardize the long-term market position of companies affected by such restructuring. It is much more difficult to increase profit by growing revenues, gross margin and through cost optimizing, all at the same time. Such restructuring process is very complex, time-consuming and often requires top management to get out of its comfort zone and to apply strategic thinking. A lack of strategic approach in corporate restructuring is short-term problem fixing or “firefighting”. You should not forget that “corporate politics” are sometimes the driving force of some organizational restructuring requirements. Some of the transformations have just one goal for top management: to gain more time to stay at their position as long as possible. It is false, but usually minor, scale restructuring.  
Examples of external reasons behind corporate restructuring
New consumer trends
Innovations that redefine the market
Company’s market share decrease due to actions of competition
Most companies declare their commitment to address market changes in their strategies, but not many of them really realize this goal in practice. Deep organizational restructuring is not an easy fix and requires radical changes in distribution network, channel management, supply chain, HR policy, production and its sourcing, communication with consumers, product/category management, etc.  
Common Obstacles to Restructuring
Resistance from employees
Successful restructuring process requires support of the majority of company’s employees from all levels. The flow of internal communication should be from top to bottom of the organisation, but also from the opposite direction. We do not realise how much the middle and lower layers of each organisation know about how to make positive changes to their organisations and impact the overall process of organisational restructuring. Every employee has certain psychological limitations, own comfort zone, old habits, limiting beliefs, etc. During restructuring process, employees and managers go through the process presented in Figure 1 below.

 After looking at the graph above, it becomes clear that gaining the support of valuable employees for the organisational restructuring process saves time and energy of every party. It can be achieved through proper communication of expected changes, supported by trust-building corporate culture.  
Corporate obstacles
Many corporations are never fully ready for deep, advanced forms of organisational restructuring. That is why many of them are not successful. We do not live in an ideal world and there is gain without pain or mistakes. However, realising the elements that have to be fixed to make any restructuring successful may help managers prepare better.

To make organisational restructuring processes successful, companies need clear vision (as part of the strategy), should seriously take care of the human aspect of the process (knowledge and motivation), have sufficient resources and a realistic and actionable template for its implementation.  
Measuring results against SMART objectives
Corrections to implementation
  Large implementation projects are never mistake free. Companies should be ready to make the necessary corrections, as many times as needed.  

Business Cost Reduction Analysis is:
What Is Cost Reduction?
Cost reduction is the process of reducing unnecessary expenses to increase their bottom line. Methodologies and results vary from business to business. However, effective cost-cutting is a dynamic, continuous, and reflective process. Businesses are fluid, and cost reduction needs to follow suit.
Cost-cutting refers to measures done to reduce costs while increasing profit. Businesses look at their expenses and seek ways on how they can improve their spending. This may come in the form of downsizing to a smaller office, closing down branches, or laying off excess employees.
Cost-cutting does not always mean that a business is failing. These measures apply to any stage, whether they are starting, expanding, or already maintaining their size. Usually, entrepreneurs who cut their expenses aim to increase their savings and profit since they have limited cash flow.
Cost-cutting strategies
There are different ways to cut costs, such as bartering and finding alternatives to availed services, finding a lower office space with better amenities, and going digital. Business process outsourcing is also a good way to save costs without sacrificing service quality. India and the Philippines, the most popular countries to outsource services, offer a wide range of services at a fraction of the cost versus hiring in-house employees and renting out space for them.
In the field of employees, we are offering an outsourcing categories like, Finance and accounting, IT, Sales & customer support,

Market research helps you find customers for your business. Competitive analysis helps you make your business unique. Combine them to find a competitive advantage for your small business.
Use market research to find customers
Market research blends consumer behavior and economic trends to confirm and improve your business idea.
It’s crucial to understand your consumer base from the outset. Market research lets you reduce risks even while your business is still just a gleam in your eye.
Gather demographic information to better understand opportunities and limitations for gaining customers. This could include population data on age, wealth, family, interests, or anything else that’s relevant for your business.
Then answer the following questions to get a good sense of your market:
o    Demand: Is there a desire for your product or service?
o    Market size: How many people would be interested in your offering?
o    Economic indicators: What is the income range and employment rate?
o    Location: Where do your customers live and where can your business reach?
o    Market saturation: How many similar options are already available to consumers?
o    Pricing: What do potential customers pay for these alternatives?
You’ll also want to keep up with the latest trends. It’s important to gain a sense of the specific market share that will impact your profits.
Asking consumers, yourself can give you a nuanced understanding of your specific target audience. But, direct research can be time consuming and expensive. Use it to answer questions about your specific business or customers, like reactions to your logo, improvements you could make to buying experience, and where customers might go instead of your business.
Here are a few methods you can use to do direct research:
o    Surveys
o    Questionnaires
o    Focus groups
o    In-depth interviews
Use competitive analysis to find a market advantage
Competitive analysis helps you learn from businesses competing for your potential customers. This is key to defining a competitive edge that creates sustainable revenue.
Your competitive analysis should identify your competition by product line or service and market segment. Assess the following characteristics of the competitive landscape:
o    Market share
o    Strengths and weaknesses
o    Your window of opportunity to enter the market
o    The importance of your target market to your competitors
o    Any barriers that may hinder you as you enter the market
o    Indirect or secondary competitors who may impact your success
Panorama Consultancy can do the best Business Market Research & Competitive Analysis that suits your business to increase your sales.

Organizations investing in mergers and acquisitions (M&As) should expect significant business benefits.
 
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) is a general term that describes the consolidation of companies or assets through various types of financial transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, consolidations, tender offers, purchase of assets, and management acquisitions.
How Mergers Are Structured
Mergers can be structured in a number of different ways, based on the relationship between the two companies involved in the deal
starting pre-merger and taking it all the way to post-merger in order to maximize transaction value and optimize revenue and cost synergies.
Our merger and acquisition consulting team ensures your organization achieves performance improvements by identifying synergies and facilitating transition planning. We also focus on properly integrating post-close people, process and technology requirements for M&A deals.
 
Typical Client Concerns During Merger & Acquisition Integration
·        What is the most effective operating structure?
·        How can we maximize cost synergies?
·        What can be done to maintain trajectory and momentum in each business while going through the integration?
·        How do we meld the cultures of each entity to avoid disruption?
·        What interim processes can be established to enable cross selling of products on day one?
·        How do we know if we are achieving integration best practices?
 
Accelerating the Transition
We laser focus on the customer and employee experience in order to minimize disruption during periods of significant change and accelerate the transition to the combined company operating model.
As your team’s trusted partner, we will uncover where the value proposition resides within the acquired organization’s business model, so you can determine what to integrate and what to separate.
Our flexible support structure quickly adapts to changes in requirements through the integration planning and execution process. Our M&A integration consulting deliverables include:
 
·        PMI Management Office
·        Strategic Blueprint and Integration Roadmap
·        Cultural Assessment & Integration Plan

Transition Planning
Developing an Integration Plan
Before the merger occurs, we develop a plan that addresses the fundamental areas of transformation:
 
·        People – We address competing values
·        Process – We analyze and optimize current state processes
·        Technology – We develop a data and information strategy
 
Minimizing the Impact
Panorama’s M&A integration consulting experts help you minimize the impact of post-merger integration. We focus on staffing and retention along with risk mitigation strategies for uninterrupted human resources functions, cash flow and customer service.

Risk Analysis and Risk Management
Risk is made up of two parts: the probability of something going wrong, and the negative consequences if it does.
 
This makes Risk Analysis an essential tool. It can help you to identify and understand the risks that you could face in your role. In turn, this helps you to manage these risks, and minimize their impact on your plans.
Financial risks have probably never been more acute. Capital reserves, credit portfolios, investment policies and capital and debt profiles all demand constant scrutiny to adequately manage and mitigate risk.
Fraud risks can also increase when cash is tight. Some employees become more opportunistic — and external hackers more resourceful. They find security lax in areas of the business that used to be better resourced … and they strike. Are your systems and policies sufficiently robust to ward off the risk of fraud?

Due to the unpredictable nature of a crisis and the potential impact on an organization’s viability, it is important for organizations to prepare in advance for both a crisis and a response.

·   Do we have an appropriate response or responses documented?
·   Do we have the right resources and advisors readily available in the event of a crisis?

What we do? And Your benefit
Control the Risk
Business Experiments are an effective way to reduce risk. They involve rolling out the high-risk activity but on a small scale, and in a controlled way. You can use experiments to observe where problems occur, and to find ways to introduce preventative and detective actions before you introduce the activity on a larger scale.
·        Preventative action involves aiming to prevent a high-risk situation from happening. It includes health and safety training, firewall protection on corporate servers, and cross-training your team.
·        Detective action involves identifying the points in a process where something could go wrong, and then putting steps in place to fix the problems promptly if they occur. Detective actions include double-checking finance reports, conducting safety testing before a product is released, or installing sensors to detect product defects.

What is an Appraisal? 
An appraisal is basically a way to conduct an unbiased analysis or evaluation of an asset, a business or organization, or to evaluate a performance against a given set of standards or criteria. Performed by a qualified appraiser, an appraisal is usually done whenever a property or asset is to be sold and its value needs to be determined, or to establish the tax obligations of a particular business
Importance of Business Appraisal
Business valuation or appraisal is important to every organization. In fact, it is indispensable for many reasons, such as:
 1. Buying and selling a business
Before a company is sold or bought or companies merge, an appraisal must be completed in order to come up with the most accurate value of the company or companies to be acquired.
For example, if Business A is going to be bought by Business B, an appraisal will determine the most accurate price for Business A. This helps ensure that Business B won’t need to pay an amount that is too high, nor will Business A receive anything less than its actual value or price.
 
2. Settling legal disputes
Legal disputes among businesses are common, often caused by disagreements or a breach of contract. When such things happen, the people involved seek legal action, as it is the most effective way to settle disputes. The court that handles the case will require a business appraisal. This is done so that if there is a need to re-allocate funds, sell the business, or liquidate assets, the details are all ready.
 
3. Determining the value of intellectual property
While some people think the only aspect to be appraised in a business is its tangible assets, intangible assets can also be appraised, such as intellectual property. Determining the value of the intellectual property of a business is necessary because it is deemed to contribute to the overall value of the business.
 4. Raising funds
When a business wants to attract and convince investors to put their money into the company, the easiest way to do that is to present an appraisal value. If the value of the company is high, that can drive investors to invest more in the business.
 Appraisals in Insurance Claims
Businesses and individuals often take out an insurance policy to protect their property from any accidents. However, claiming benefits from the policy can be rigorous and time-consuming; appraisals are a way to hasten the process. When an inventory of the contents of a house is ready and appraised, estimating their value becomes easier, and the claim is settled more quickly.
 If you are looking to buy, sell or transfer shares in a business in the UAE or elsewhere, it is important to ascertain the right transaction value which is fair and acceptable to all parties. Our business valuation team helps companies and investors in determining the enterprise value and supporting them through the transaction.
Organizations need precision about fair value of its assets or business for a variety of reasons. Whatever the purpose, Panorama Consultancy believes that valuations are fundamentally the process for updating the decisions you make with what is likely your most important financial asset.

Find Deals Before They Come To Market
Did you know most quality businesses are bought long before they come to market? The key to finding the best deals is to identify opportunities before they come to market. Sellers don’t want their plans to become public knowledge and prefer to be approached by a serious buyer.

Most business sellers don’t want to part with upfront fees typically associated with business brokers. That’s why we’ve developed a live database of off-market opportunities.

Here are some unique opportunities without the worry someone else may buy them before you. These are willing sellers looking for buyers for their companies in the immediate future. Not all businesses for sale are advertised online or through agencies.
