Managing Cognitive Bias in Business Valuation

The process of company valuation is generally seen as a systematic financial process. The valuator studies past financial statements, creates projections, selects a suitable valuation technique, looks at market multiples, selects a discount rate, and finally reaches the company’s value. However, there is more to this valuation process than the mathematical part; there are several judgments involved.

Cognitive bias may impact company valuation at almost every step ranging from initial assessment of the firm, to forecasting by the management.

Transfer Pricing and Tax Risk Management in Egypt

Transfer pricing is often viewed by businesses as a technical tax compliance requirement. However, for multinational groups and companies operating with related parties, transfer pricing is much more than the preparation of a Local File or a benchmarking study. When properly managed, transfer pricing can become an important tool for managing tax risk, protecting profitability, supporting business decisions, and avoiding unexpected tax adjustments.

The Legal Framework Governing Women’s Employment in Egypt

Ministerial Decree No. 75 of 2026 introduces a new framework governing women’s employment, maternity protection, and workplace safety.

The regulation of women’s employment has long required legislators to strike a balance between two competing objectives which are ensuring equal access to employment opportunities while protecting women from the risks associated with pregnancy, breastfeeding, and hazardous working conditions. Increasingly, labour legislation has sought to achieve this balance by adopting targeted measures aimed at safeguarding maternity and addressing occupational health and safety concerns without unnecessarily limiting women’s participation in the labour market.
