Managing financial difficulties
The impact of the cost-of-living crisis, coupled with increased taxes and soaring costs, has left many businesses struggling. As a director, it is crucial to proactively assess the risk and vulnerability of your business from both operational and financial standpoints, and act decisively to mitigate issues. Even if you believe your business might not be severely affected, consider the potential knock-on effects from your customers or suppliers.
Undoubtedly, the biggest impact many businesses are currently facing is a reduction in cashflow. No business can survive without readily available cash to meet ongoing liabilities such as payroll, suppliers, and lending commitments. Even profitable businesses need to manage their cashflow, and there’s always room for improvement.
The UK is bracing for a surge in corporate insolvencies as businesses grapple with prolonged high interest rates and the recent Budget's implications, including the announcement of a National Insurance hike and minimum wage increases. Sometimes it becomes apparent that a business cannot and should not continue. However, there are various options available and, if advice is taken early enough, it may still be possible to rescue a business. The quicker you act, the more options there will be available to you.
