Cash management is a broad term that refers to the
collection, concentration, and disbursement of cash. It
encompasses a company's level of liquidity, its
management of cash balance, and its short-term
investment strategies. In some ways, managing cash
flow is the most important job of business managers.
If at any time a company fails to pay an obligation when
it is due because of the lack of cash, the company is
insolvent. Insolvency is the primary reason firms go
bankrupt.
Obviously, the prospect of such a dire consequence
should compel companies to manage their cash with
care. Moreover, efficient cash management means more
than just preventing bankruptcy.
It improves the profitability and reduces the risk to
which the firm is exposed.
