METHODOLOGY

How We Built Your Data?

Finance professionals spent days gathering capital-market data from scattered sources, then defending every figure in audits and court. smartZebra ends that.

Premium sources

One database, drawn from leading global providers and local registries — 50,000+ companies across 100+ countries.

Traceable & audit-proof

Every data point carries its source and a full calculation log, documented to valuation and OECD transfer-pricing standards.

Methods you can defend

Established approaches, including Svensson & Nelson-Siegel curves, levered/unlevered beta, OECD-compliant PLIs, etc., so every WACC and benchmark holds up.
