The study focuses on one of the specific applications of the market approach. The market approach is a valuation method whereby the fair market value of the target company is determined by reviewing comparable companies with similar operational and financial characteristics. The International Valuation Standards (2017) require that a valuer should make adjustments to the selected market multiples. Kasarova, Pramatarska and Lazarova (2009) and Todorov (2015) propose a method for adjusting market multiples for country risk and efficiency when the market approach is applied to emerging markets. We enhance their adjustment approach by removing its inherent restrictions.
