How can Treasurers effectively manage liquidity and funding through these uncertain times?

The effects of COVID-19 have had widespread impact on companies’ financial health. Treasurers have been tasked with leading the charge of managing through volatility to sustain liquidity and maintain operations.

Navigating a crisis and its associated impacts on liquidity and funding requires detailed understanding of various treasury levers available within your company. Whether it be centralizing approvals for all cash outflows, seeking waivers on debt covenants to accommodate additional funding needs or implementing a more conservative approach to risk management, treasurers need to be prepared to pull the levers as needed to manage liquidity.

If existing levers do not offer sufficient measures to meet liquidity demands, a number of programs have been announced by the government to assist companies to secure additional funding. Depending on your size and liquidity needs, you may be eligible for these programs.

We can help you devise strategies for pulling the appropriate levers, understand the various relief programs available to your company, and help you navigate these challenging times.
