Our Business Risk Analyst, Nick Hood looks at the internal and external politics at play when companies are raising new money or restructuring their existing finances and the vital role that Corporate Treasurers need to play.
“Ultimately, treasurers need to be the voice of reason about all financing issues, highlighting not just the mechanics and purely financial implications, but also the broader considerations in this changed commercial world. Others in their management team may have different drivers and incentives, which can cloud their judgement. A healthy dose of common sense from its treasury department can be a great antidote to excessive commercial exuberance.”
