Miami, FL – February 26, 2019 – “Wall Street’s Dean of Valuation” NYU Stern Professor Aswath Damodaran recently headlined the BigSur Partners Event Series. BigSur Partners – a global investment and wealth management company headquartered in South Florida with more than $1B in assets under management and a provider of investment advising services throughout Latin America, the United States and globally – alongside NYU Stern School of Business, welcomed more than 150 business executives, community leaders, clients and NYU alumni to the private conference event at the East Miami Hotel in Brickell Avenue, Miami Florida. Globally renowned author and NYU Stern Professor Aswath Damodaran, spoke on equity valuation and strategies that lead to increased investment sentiment for successes in business. Discussing topics from his recent book, Narrative and Numbers: The Value of Stories in Business, which captures how the power of story drives corporate value, adding substance to numbers and persuading even cautious investors to take risks, Damodaran’s presentation outlined how a business can deliver and sustain value.

Damodaran has also published several papers and books such as The Dark Side of Valuation: Valuing Young, Distressed, and Complex Businesses and his recent published paper on valuing Tesla: “Tesla: Anatomy of a Run-Up Value Creation or Investor Sentiment?” was awarded the Bernstein-Levy readers’ award in the Journal of Portfolio Management.
