The Regulatory Window

LinkedIn Post 11: The Regulatory Window

Here's a timeline worth tracking:

NOW (2026): Individual valuers and forward-thinking firms are establishing governance standards for synthetic comparables voluntarily.

24-36 MONTHS (2027-2028): As synthetic comparable disputes emerge, courts develop case law. Regulatory guidance appears. Standards begin to crystallize.

36+ MONTHS (2029+): Professional standards bodies issue formal guidance. Synthetic comparable governance becomes mandatory, not voluntary.

The question for your firm: Will you establish governance on your terms, or have it imposed on you?

Proactive adoption now positions you ahead of formal standards. Reactive adoption later means catching up after standards exist.

The window for professional self-governance is open. But it's closing.
