Financial Modelling

Forensic Modelling

Sapere’s forensic team specialises in providing financial modelling that provides clients and experts with clear, accessible information that is tailored to their needs.

We pride ourselves on our ability to cut through the white noise of data and jargon.

Our clients value our ability to interrogate data, identify risks and opportunities, and help them when navigating litigation, arbitration, investigations or other business changes such as transactions or regulatory reviews.

Our financial modelling expertise complements our experience in forensic accounting and damages, international arbitration and litigation support services.

What we do

No two of our projects are the same, requiring a bespoke solution for each.

This may result in a single-discipline output or an end-to-end service which may see us:

  • Extract data from current or legacy systems alongside trusted business associates
  • Manipulate data into the required form and volume
  • Interpret and analyse data
  • Identify, scope and build needs-based models, tools or dashboards to convey the information contained within the data.

 

We have delivered numerous projects across a diverse range of disciplines, including:

  • Data extraction
  • Financial analysis
  • Financial modelling
  • Scenario analysis
  • Model audit and review.

 

Our modelling skills are directly transferable to building models for litigation as well as in non-contentious contexts and we have experience in developing:

  • Operational models for corporates that can be rolled forward and expanded at the conclusion of each financial year
  • Models for guiding Government policy-making including tenders or the establishment of regulatory regimes
  • Models for private clients such as high net worth individuals, such as the division of parental assets between siblings in an inheritance.

 

We provide sophisticated work products that can be easily accessed, used and understood by corporate and individual clients, law firms, courts and counsel alike.

We help our clients navigate complex, data-dense matters such as litigation, arbitration and investigations with confidence.
