This webinar will introduce to you how to build a risk-free portfolio using the Option Valuation Theory. This webinar will review option valuation models as well as the value-relevant differences in employee stock options (ESOs) and traded options. It will also review the ESOs of publicly traded versus closely held companies and will conclude with the guidelines valuators should use to evaluate and select the most appropriate valuation model for a given option and standard of value.
