Technology and evidence in professional workflows

Many discussions at the event concerned the adoption of technology in accounting and advisory work. For valuation and transfer pricing professionals, the practical issue is not simply whether a process can be automated. The underlying data, assumptions, and decision path must remain visible so that the result can be reviewed and documented.

Participants also discussed changing regulatory and reporting requirements. These developments increase the need for current market data, consistent methods, and documentation that can be reproduced when an analysis is reviewed at a later date.

Feedback from practitioners

Conversations with practitioners reinforced three product requirements for smartZebra. Users need reliable financial and market data, tools that fit established working processes, and outputs that explain the source and calculation of each material input.

The event also provided an opportunity to reconnect with the team from Valid Value and establish new relationships in the United Kingdom. Feedback from these discussions will inform product development for smartZebra's valuation and transfer pricing applications.
