RICS Qualified Valuers in Delivering Trusted Valuation Services
Accurate asset valuation is a cornerstone of informed decision-making in real estate, infrastructure, and financial markets. At the heart of this process lies the expertise of RICS qualified valuers, professionals whose qualifications are governed by the globally recognized standards of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).
What is RICS?
Founded in 1868, the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) is a leading professional body dedicated to promoting and enforcing the highest international standards in the built and natural environments. With over 134,000 members across 150 countries, RICS champions ethical practice, technical excellence, and innovation in sectors such as real estate, construction, infrastructure, and valuation. By setting rigorous benchmarks for education, training, and conduct, RICS ensures its members deliver trusted advice that shapes economies and communities worldwide.
The Role of RICS in Valuation
Valuation is a critical discipline within RICS’s scope, as it underpins investment, lending, and transactional decisions. RICS plays a pivotal role in this field through:
- Global Standards: The RICS Valuation – Global Standards (commonly known as the Red Book) provides the definitive framework for valuation practices. It ensures consistency, transparency, and compliance with international regulatory requirements.
- Professional Accreditation: RICS certifies valuers through stringent assessment processes, including education, practical experience, and ethical examinations. Members (designated as MRICS or FRICS) must adhere to lifelong learning (CPD) to maintain their credentials.
- Ethical Governance: RICS mandates a strict code of conduct, requiring members to act with integrity, independence, and accountability. This reduces risks of bias or malpractice in valuation outcomes.
- Guidance and Advocacy: RICS offers specialized resources for complex scenarios, such as valuing intangible assets, sustainability-linked properties, or cross-border portfolios. It also advocates for valuation best practices in global policy forums.
