The professional services firm CohnReznick has announced that its Valuation Advisory practice is continuing to deepen its expertise and improve client deliverables by leveraging technology for continued efficiency, accuracy, and world-class client experience. By implementing AI-driven, advanced analytics technology CohnReznick is able to better deliver faster, more transparent, and more defensible valuations for its clients across private equity, private credit, public company, and complex asset classes.
By incorporating 73 Strings’ valuation analytics capabilities into its established valuation methodologies, CohnReznick enhances its ability to analyze large and complex data sets, increase consistency across valuation models, and provide clients with deeper insights into valuation drivers. The adoption of advanced analytics also supports the increasing demand for more frequent valuation cycles driven by evolving fund structures and investor expectations.
“This implementation reflects one way CohnReznick is intentionally investing in advanced technology to elevate the advisory services we deliver to clients,” said Claudine Cohen, Managing Partner of Value360 at CohnReznick. “By embracing AI‑enabled analytics, we are enhancing the rigor, speed, and transparency of our valuation work while preserving the professional judgment and independence that clients rely on. These investments allow our teams to deliver deeper insights, stronger support for complex decisions, and a higher‑quality client experience.”
The technology supports CohnReznick’s continued focus on rigor, audit readiness, and regulatory scrutiny – while preserving full independence, professional judgment, and oversight by its valuation professionals.
“GPs are being asked to deliver valuations that are more frequent, faster, and more traceable amid rising LP scrutiny, tougher audit expectations, compressed timelines, and growing portfolio complexity… often without a matching increase in budget or headcount,” said James Nielsen, Managing Director of CohnReznick’s Valuation Advisory practice. “By leveraging advanced valuation and data analytics technology, we can accelerate certain aspects of the valuation process and devote more time to higher‑value analysis – including deeper portfolio analytics that enhance the support for key valuation inputs and assumptions. This allows us to increase transparency and strengthen documentation without compromising the professional judgment and experience that define our work.”
CohnReznick’s Valuation Advisory practice provides valuation services for financial reporting, tax, transaction advisory, dispute resolution, and strategic planning purposes. The integration of advanced valuation and data analytics technology enables the team to:
- Increase efficiency in valuation workflows and data analysis
- Enhance transparency into key assumptions and valuation drivers
- Apply deeper analytical techniques to support critical valuation judgments, enabling professionals to focus on complex inputs, scenario analysis, and defensible valuation conclusions
- Strengthen defensibility in audit and regulatory reviews
- Deliver more timely insights to management teams, boards, and investors
“Technology can enhance the valuation process, but it does not replace experience, judgment, or accountability,” said Brad Hirsch, CohnReznick’s Valuation Advisory Services practice leader. “Our approach combines advanced analytics with deep industry knowledge and technical expertise, giving our teams more time to focus on complex valuation judgments and portfolio‑level insights that matter most. This helps clients navigate increasingly complex valuation challenges with confidence.”
CohnReznick’s Valuation Advisory professionals serve clients across a wide range of industries, including private equity, venture capital, financial services, technology, healthcare, industrials, consumer and retail, and energy. The group works closely with the firm’s broader advisory, assurance, and tax practices to deliver integrated, client-focused solutions.
