Treasury Management for Small Business

Growing businesses need visibility over cash before making financial decisions. Treasury management creates a structured view of liquidity, expected collections, upcoming obligations and working capital requirements.

Financely helps small businesses organize their treasury function around cash-flow forecasting, liquidity planning, banking, debt obligations and short-term financial decisions.

Who Can Benefit From Treasury Management?

Treasury support can become especially valuable when a company is growing quickly or dealing with increasingly complex financial commitments.

  • Businesses experiencing rapid revenue growth
  • Companies with seasonal cash-flow fluctuations
  • Businesses offering customers extended payment terms
  • Importers and distributors carrying inventory
  • Companies making large supplier prepayments
  • Businesses operating several bank accounts

  • Businesses preparing for expansion

  • Management teams seeking better financial visibility

Treasury Management and Working Capital Financing

Treasury planning can also help management identify the appropriate size and timing of a working capital facility.

A company with clear forecasts, receivables schedules, debt obligations and liquidity reporting can provide lenders with a stronger view of its financing requirement.

Where additional capital is required, Financely can also help evaluate structures such as working capital loans, receivables financing, asset-based lending, trade finance and other commercial lending solutions.
