Outlook 2025
With the monthly publication “Dr. Michael Heise on Global Economics”, we address current developments that have a significant impact on the economy and the capital markets.

Valuation of Banks - The Income Approach
The Academic Paper “Valuation of Banks – The Income Approach” by LeanVal Research deals with the special features of accounting for banks and presents some models for the valuation of financial institutions.
As specialists in accounting and company valuation, we place a special focus on the risk evaluation of the business areas, the determination of value drivers and the competition analysis. The stringent analysis and valuation approach, based on the ROIC valuation (“Return on Invested Capital”), is supported by our proprietary software with elements of artificial intelligence.
Thanks to our extensive industry and branch know-how, we have a high level of competence in the analysis of individual companies or entire portfolios. At the customer’s request, certain companies or industries can be evaluated exclusively. The customers of our buy-side research are family offices, asset management companies, asset managers and foundations. In addition, we advise companies outside the financial sector on corporate valuation issues.
LeanVal Research Platform

The research platform offers fundamental equity analysis with relative assessment and absolute valuation for approx. 600 European and approx. 500 US equities. Our goal is an above-average high quality of the data, both for historical and forecast annual financial statements. With the data, selection strategies for stocks can be designed quickly and easily and historically tested. In addition, LeanVal creates its own equity strategies.
Stock analysis

In addition to an overview of the most important stock indices, the equity analyses include the equity snapshot with the ValueXplorer, the equity filter and research reports on individual stocks.
Equity strategies

Here you will find our active equity strategies and a range of themed stocks. You can create your stock lists or use the screener to create and test your own strategies.
Market analyses

The ROIC approach uses a bottom-up process to draw conclusions about the attractiveness of individual countries and industries. Here they also receive analyses on specific megatrends.
Global Economics

With the publication series “Dr. Michael Heise on Global Economics” we address current developments that have a significant impact on the economy and capital markets.
Our philosophy
Profit is not always success
A one-sided look at the profits of a company does not allow any conclusions to be drawn about the performance of a company.
Advantages of the ROIC process
Our proprietary evaluation and analysis approach based on the ROIC allows the added value and thus the real success of a company to be determined.
