"Demand for valuations to comply with increasingly complex tax regulations and new and evolving fair value accounting standards has been strong and growing since we opened SVB Analytics in 2006, and there are hundreds of private companies out there that still need our help," said Jim Anderson, president of SVB Analytics. "Jim has the valuation and consulting expertise that will help us continue to meet our clients' expanding needs for advice. We look forward to his contributions to our clients' success as well as our continued growth."
