ABOUT MARK PRIGGE

Most business owners are better at building value than proving it. That gap is where money gets left behind. 

Who I am

Mark Prigge, independent business valuer

Mark Prigge

B.Com, MBA · Bizplans CC · CK 2006/214379/23

More than twenty years in corporate finance, M&A and business valuation across the United Kingdom and South Africa, including contested divorce and partnership matters on instructions from lawyers and accountants. My valuations are prepared to IVS and to the evidentiary standards expected by HMRC, the courts and lenders. I work remotely — no office overheads, no geographic limits on turnaround, and complete independence from any local network of interested parties.

I also maintain a South African valuation practice, Bizplans CC, which operates as a separate business on its own site. UK instructions are handled under BVPro.

Why I built BVPRO

The same situation, over and over.

A business owner walks into the biggest financial moment of their life — a sale, a divorce, a dispute — with only their accountant’s year-end figure in their hand. That number was never designed for what they are about to do with it.

Your accountant’s figure is built for tax. A buyer, a court, a bank or an opposing attorney needs something different — an independent, defensible opinion from someone with no relationship to either side and no stake in the outcome. That is what Bizplans produces. Nothing else.

What to expect

Six things that make a BVPro valuation different

01

No black boxes

Every assumption documented. Every add-back explained. Every multiple justified.

02

No conflicts

I take no commission or success fee on any business I value. I neither pay nor receive referral fees. My only interest is an honest opinion.

03

An honest range

A defensible range beats a single number that implies false precision.

04

Fixed fee, scoped in writing

Fee agreed before work begins and scoped to your situation. Most valuations completed within about a week once I have the information I need.

05

A report you can use

Plain English, with the executive summary at the front of the report.

06

Available when you need me

WhatsApp is the quickest way to reach me. I reply within one business day, usually the same day.

FOR SOLICITORS AND ACCOUNTANTS

Referring a client?

If you have a client who needs an independent business valuation — or a served valuation that needs testing — I make the referral straightforward. Your client receives a professional, conflict-free report on time and within the agreed fee, and the relationship stays yours. See the For advisers page or download the referral guide.

The first conversation is free. No pitch, no pressure.
