Cash flow & working capital optimization

Valuable discipline even for healthy businesses

Working capital optimization is crucial for any business. It can provide a competitive edge and allows you to be more financially robust and able to withstand temporary setbacks. We can help you to improve your working capital by offering strategic advice and actionable solutions that support your growth objectives.

Our approach

Given uncertainties in the global marketplace, it is more important than ever that companies protect their liquidity and cash flow. Companies that have an effective approach to working capital optimization often outperform their peers, and consequentially have a clear competitive advantage.

We believe effective optimization of working capital and cash flow starts with the Board. It is not a problem that can be effectively addressed by back-office teams such as credit control alone. We can offer strategic advice on areas such as balance sheet optimization, demand forecasting and liquidity risk analysis – which is more important than ever in the wake of Covid-19.

At a tactical level, we offer credit control as part of our financial outsourcing solutions. Our experienced team can drive down late payments while freeing up your staff to concentrate on revenue generation and other key operations.

For businesses where cash flow or working capital has become an acute issue, we can assist with tough, urgent actions such as negotiations with suppliers and landlords, and help raise much needed capital from investors or asset-based lenders.

We know that privately owned businesses have a particular focus on managing cash flow and working capital optimization, as they often have less access to outside capital. We have specialist teams who offer tailored advice to SMEs, start-ups and medium sized international firms.
