Course Overview
The incoming and outgoing cash your business uses to fund its operations is called cash flow. If a business continuously makes more money than it spends, it is often seen as financially sound. Cash flow is crucial because it makes it possible for you to both fulfill your current financial responsibilities and make plans for the future. You may assure the efficient day-to-day operation of your firm by balancing your cash inflows and outflows. Simultaneously, it will assist in creating adequate reserves to withstand peaks and troughs in sales, late invoice payments, or unforeseen expenses.
This Cash Flow Management training session covers the fundamentals of efficient working capital and cash flow management. Additionally, you will be able to understand important business cash flow drivers and optimize each working capital component using practical approaches. The knowledge acquired will enhance your cash forecasting techniques and provide new insights into improving financial and operating performance.
