My references My current events

'It is costly wisdom that is bought by experience'

The expression "precious is the wisdom gained through experience" is very apt when it comes to entrepreneurship. As both a consultant and an entrepreneur, I understand that experience and wisdom are indispensable in entrepreneurship.

Over the years, I have gained extensive experience in Corporate Finance in the Food & Agri and Industrial Markets sectors.

Working for several Family Offices is also a particularly interesting experience because it often means dealing with complex financial issues and strategic investment decisions.

Working from the JBR Belgium office, I focus primarily on the Belgian and Luxembourg markets and am familiar with local laws and regulations and business customs. This allows me to work quickly and efficiently and provide clients with expert advice relevant to their specific situation.

A complex valuation in Belgium

date: 8 April 2026

Income Approach (Discounted Cash Flow).
Market approach where the choice is the Comparable Company Analysis which assumes that the market is perfectly capable of pricing the future profitability of a company. Or else the Comparable Transaction Analysis which is especially important in M&A decision making because it incorporates the value of future synergies between buyer and target into the transaction price.
