Digital Business, Creators and Platforms
Digital businesses and content creators generate revenue through platforms, advertising, subscriptions and partnerships, often within recently formed corporate structures and with records scattered across multiple sources.
Industry context
Divorce proceedings, succession matters, partner exits and disputes with platforms or agencies all require identifying revenue, valuing intangible assets such as channels, brands and subscriber bases, and tracing funds across accounts.
SGEx acts in this environment as a technical firm, engaged when the industry produces disputes, inquiries, reviews, losses, buyout claims, fraud, rendering-of-accounts matters or valuations that call for an independent examination.
Questions that arise in this industry
- Calculation of revenue from platforms, advertising and partnerships.
- Valuation of digital businesses and intangible assets.
- Identification and tracing of creators' assets.
- Ownership interests in estate divisions and succession matters.
- Rendering of accounts among creators, agencies and business partners.
How SGEx Approaches This
SGEx may examine: sGEx typically reviews platform payment reports, partnership and management agreements, bank and payment-processor statements, accounting records and performance data with financial effect.
Every engagement begins by framing the technical question, continues with the organization of these sources, and ends with conclusions presented in the format the proceeding requires, with assumptions and limitations disclosed.

The format is defined according to the case, the proceeding and the purpose of the work.
