Decile Group has developed this Valuation Policy for the VC Lab community. The policy has been adopted by the majority of Decile Partner firms.

Thanks Mike! Is this policy aligned with IPEV guidelines? https://www.privateequityvaluation.com/Valuation-Guidelines

We reviewed these guidlines and others while developing the Decile Valuation Policy. While the policy is robust, the IPEV guidelines are over-kill for emerging managers in Venture Capital. Many of their guidlines are also not applicable (i.e. Discounted Cash Flows) or difficult to comply with. That being said, the Decile Valuation Policy does align with several of the concepts in the IPEV guidlines while being simpler and easier to understand.

200% nobody use DSF in valuation of startups, normally it is used in PE where their Business Plan is robust.
