The American Business Appraisers National Network (ABA) is a consortium of experienced and credentialed business valuation professionals. The strategic objective of the ABA is to provide its member firms with the resources and expertise of a national network of highly qualified business appraisal specialists. Member firms enjoy exclusive member territories defined by geographic regions, as well as the benefit of group purchasing discounts on many business valuation research subscriptions. ABA members are seasoned business appraisers who are highly regarded within the appraisal industry. Some have authored business valuation courses, others teach business valuation courses for several of the credentialing valuation organizations, and others sit on the governing boards of some of the elite valuation credentialing organizations. ABA members are willing to extend a professional courtesy or partner with fellow ABA members on difficult appraisal assignments; thereby creating professional growth within the ABA. ABA promotes higher education for its members as a result of an exclusive annual valuation conference. Topics include cutting edge technical issues, best practices, practice management, and other topics. Usually, professional education credits are an added benefit of attending the annual conference. Membership is by invitation. If you are an independent business valuation professional or the leader of a valuation firm and have an interest in membership in our organization, please visit https://www.businessval.com/join-our-network/ or contact any member directly.
