Cash Flow Management
Cash flow issues can put a stressful and completely unnecessary strain on a business, but our finance experts are here to help you forecast your cash flow and act on investment opportunities.
What is cash flow management?
Cash flow management is a fundamental aspect of financial planning for individuals, businesses, and organisations. It involves the accurate tracking and monitoring of cash inflows and outflows to ensure a healthy and sustainable financial position.
Effective cash flow management allows for timely payments of expenses, investments in growth opportunities, and the ability to weather unforeseen challenges. By analysing and forecasting cash flows, individuals and businesses can make informed decisions about saving, spending, and investing. Whether it's optimising accounts receivable, managing inventory levels, or negotiating favourable payment terms with suppliers, cash flow management is crucial for maintaining a stable and resilient financial foundation.
Why is cash flow management important?
Cash flow management is important to all businesses of any size, but it is particularly important to SMEs. Traditionally, SMEs do not have the access to guidance and financial resources needed to successfully manage their cash flow, resulting in a higher number of SMEs facing cash flow problems as opposed to larger businesses.
SMEs may also find they have less stop-gap funds available to allow them to survive temporary issues with cash flow, such as late payments. This negative cash flow can prevent a business from growing, and sometimes even succeeding, which is why it is so important to accurately monitor and forecast cash flow to predict and prevent negative cash flow.
