Cash flow is at the heart of any business. The book "Analysing the company's situation through its cash flow" explores the key issues of cash flow management in three chapters. The first chapter lays the foundations, defining the concepts of cash flow, its components and the strategic role of the treasurer, who is responsible for ensuring daily financial stability. The second chapter focuses on the objectives of good management, in particular covering liquidity needs, preventing cash flow risks, meeting commitments and anticipating short-term cash flows. The third chapter addresses optimisation, presenting tools (cash flow plans, dashboards), levers (reducing customer payment terms, supplier negotiations) and best practices for improving profitability and financial security. The book thus highlights the importance of cash flow as a barometer of a company's financial health.
