Viral Desai

I have over 25 years of valuation experience, covering public and private companies in a wide range of industries across the globe. My work includes valuations for financial reporting and tax, as well as commercial and transaction-related purposes.

I've led multi-disciplinary teams providing pre-deal and post-deal valuation support, from pricing analysis to purchase price allocations, and have acted as independent expert and in dispute situations on many occasions. I also have extensive experience of valuations in the context of restructuring and reorganisations.

I joined the firm in 2024, bringing a particular focus on banking, fintech and investment management. My wider Financial Services experience covers corporate and retail banking, insurance (general, life and the Lloyd's Market) and investment and wealth management. I'm a Fellow of the ICAEW.
