Investment analysis standards
INVESTMENT-ANALYSIS STANDARDS AND TOOLS
When every unit appraises projects its own way — with different assumptions, metrics, and calculation logic — the investment committee loses the ability to compare objectively. Decisions are made not on an analytical rationale but on the presentation skills and internal influence of the project’s sponsor. We develop a single methodology and appraisal tools that ensure the same standard of analysis for every project in the portfolio, making investment decisions transparent and substantiated.
You get: a single modeling methodology mandatory for all of the company’s investment projects; unified metrics and appraisal criteria with a transparent calculation methodology; objectivity in comparing projects in the portfolio through single standards and tools; ready-to-use standard models and templates for project teams.
The service is intended for companies with an active investment portfolio, where the quality and objectivity of project appraisal is a critical factor in the effective allocation of capital — and where leadership seeks to replace subjective judgment with a standardized analytical methodology.

Key challenges addressed:
- subjective motives behind investment decisions
- the absence of project prioritization
- the absence of an appraisal method
Key areas of work:
-
Single modeling standards and metrics — we establish a financial-modeling methodology mandatory for all initiatives and a unified list of metrics and a single approach to calculating them.
-
Setting requirements for input data — we define standards for the input data, assumptions, and scenarios that must accompany every investment appraisal.
-
Developing standard models and templates — we create ready-to-use financial models and templates tailored to the company's typical project categories.
-
Implementing risk-analysis tools — we integrate sensitivity analysis, scenario modeling, and stress tests as mandatory elements of every project's appraisal.
-
Selection and decision criteria — we establish transparent criteria for appraising and comparing projects and set threshold values and rules for making investment decisions.
