Online Financial Management Course
Financial Management VBS013
Whether you are managing money on a small or large scale; and whether in a business or personal context, there are always three things you must aim to achieve:
1. Increase Assets
Total assets (e.g. Money and investments such as property, shares, etc) either increase or decrease, but never remain constant. If assets decrease and continue to decrease, eventually there will be no assets (or finance) to manage.
2. Sustain Cash Flow
Assets need to be used in order to survive. Businesses use assets to sustain activities that generate income. People use assets to sustain their existence. If cash flow stops, a business stops doing business. If personal cash flow stops, there is no money for food or shelter.
3. Organise Finance Effectively
Finance must be organised and controlled well if you are to optimise gains and minimise losses. Financial activities (business or private) are subject to legal controls (e.g. everyone pays tax, and everyone must be able to account for how they handle their finance).
