Synopses & Reviews
The management of cash within a corporation has a direct impact on both the profitability and the shareholder value of that company. Active and efficient management of cash resources will significantly improve both the profitability and the shareholder value of every corporation, whereas passive and inefficient management will have a directly negative impact.
In European Cash Management Marie Dolfe and Anna Koritz, two leading experts in cash management, draw on their considerable international experience of working with banks and major multinational corporations to explain the various techniques for effective cash management and outline best practice within the area. The book shows managers the effect of poor management of cash on their company and offers clear practical guidance on how to formulate an effective strategy that will enable companies to release capital employed that may be put to more effective use.
