I remember during my time at SABIC M&A, where we used @RISK to develop Monte Carlo Simulation on Valuation model and the output used to give sufficient data, return metrics distribution and confidence in extreme scenarios for decision making during FID. Don’t you think it is right time now, when we have already witnessed black swan events, to embrace Monte Carlo Simulation?

I think it is a good idea if we have enough data and information. Otherwise scenario (stress) testing is a less sophisticated but useful method.
