Cashflow is one of the most important aspects of your business at any time, but is more important than ever, as we move through these challenging times. 

Steve Plaskitt, Corporate Finance Partner from MHA Tait Walker, an independent accountancy and advisory firm, will guide you through the importance of managing and planning your cashflow as we begin to come out of lockdown. 

The areas that will be covered:

• How to reopen – getting ready and informing employees, customers and stakeholders of your intentions; being operationally ready
• How to make sure you stay open – is your supply chain resilient? – what happens if supply issues mean you can not continue to work
• Make a cash profit – how do you forecast what cash profit you will make when you restart and if you can not how can you get funding?
