Cash is the lifeblood of all businesses. Without liquidity, businesses wither and die. The mission of the treasury department is to manage the liquidity of a business. This means all current/projected cash inflows/outflows must be monitored to ensure there is sufficient cash to fund company operations, as well as to ensure excess cash is properly invested. To do this, the function must ensure that existing assets are safeguarded through the use of safe and reliable forms of investment and hedging activities.

Following are the most important tasks of the Treasurers that are discussed in this online CPE webinar for CPAs:

  • Enhance liquidity risk

Excellent course and well presented. The instructor did a superior job in delivering the lectures. She spoke slowly, distinctly and enunciated in a manner that made it easy to understand her. Ms. Fountain is definitely one of my favorite lecturers. I will be looking for her courses.
