Corporate finance

Keeping an eye on your finance requirements

One of the most common causes of business failure is badly structured or inadequate financing. At every stage in its growth a business needs to maintain a balance between a positive cashflow with adequate working capital on the one hand and a reasonable return to shareholders on the other.

Directors' drawings, shareholder dividends and debt repayments need to be carefully orchestrated to ensure that the smooth running and continued growth of the business are not jeopardised.

Then there are the special finance requirements for business expansion, mergers and acquisitions, MBOs, and MBIs. Preparing business plans and finance applications and identifying and approaching appropriate lending sources require expertise and professional insight if the best possible results are to be achieved.

Finally there are the financial implications of ensuring a suitable exit route for the current business owners.
