Overview of the webinar
Understand the Importance of Cash Flow to Bankers, How to calculate it and what its Uses are.
As a banker, you need to interpret cash flow and calculate it accurately to pitch a stellar success.

The webinar will explain how the cash flow statement is derived from the balance sheet and the income statement, and then it will describe its three component cash flow activities—operating, financing, and investing.

Why should you attend?
There is an old saying in credit analysis, “Borrowers pay back loans from cash flow, not profits.” But it is not just cash flow; it is cash flow from operations that is the most desirable source of repayment because it is generated by a borrower managing its working capital assets and earning a sustainable profit. This webinar will explain the difference between profits and cash flow as well as cash flow from operations vs. cash flow from financing and investing activities. After all, borrowing from another lender or liquidating fixed assets to pay you back ultimately hurts the long-term viability of the borrower.
