Emagia Cash Flow Forecasting

Cash flow forecasting is a critical business process that enables companies to ensure better liquidity management and short-term investment and borrowing decisions. Corporate finance executives often rely on divisional forecasts, oftentimes presented in separate spreadsheets, to arrive at a finalized forecast. Due to data and forecast modeling issues, the lack of standard templates and the inherent latency of data collection and consolidation activities, many corporations find that their cash forecasts are not as accurate as required for optimal decision-making. Driving planning and goal-setting functions from incorrect forecasts results in sub-optimal investment and debt management, forcing many companies to maintain an excessive reserve of cash to cover variability.
