Are your assets holding their value?

External forces can change the value of your assets at almost any time. Electronic communications such as an unsent text or a decedent’s email can alter an inheritance. Factors as disparate as supply shortages, price changes, and competition from unexpected sectors can affect the value of a business.

If the value of your assets appears to be fluctuating, the professionals at Asterion may be able to assist you in getting an accurate picture of their worth.

Will your business be protected from a globe-spanning disaster?

Bad weather in Europe and South America, as well as devastating fires in Northern California, have combined to cause a downturn in wine production around the world. Production may be reduced to levels not seen since 1961. In the short run, prices may rise, but the long term impact of multiple disasters on the industry remains to be seen, as vintners determine whether vines and terroir can be salvaged, along with which buildings will need to be replaced.

Adequate insurance is often the key for a business recovering from any disaster. If you are facing a business interruption claim, Asterion professionals can assist you to properly document your losses and help ensure that you receive the amounts that are owed under your policy.
