Understanding Liquidity and Cash Flow Management (Webinar)

April 4 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Free

Please join Forefront and BDO Nonprofit & Grantmaker Advisory for this virtual training and take a deeper dive into cash flow planning including understanding how liquidity impacts financial health and learning how to implement a cash flow management tool.

Maintaining adequate cash flow is a key component of ensuring the financial health and stability of any nonprofit organization. In this workshop, we will explore how cash is a critical component of an organization’s capital structure and discuss strategies to maximize positive cash flow. This workshop will take participants through a step-by-step process to project future cash flow, with an emphasis on the cross-functional team collaboration necessary to create and update projections. As a takeaway, participants will be provided with a tool to calculate key liquidity metrics for their own organizations as well as a template for creating cash flow projections.

Key focus areas for this workshop will include:

  • Creating and updating rolling cash flow projections as part of your financial planning and monitoring process
  • The importance of maintaining sufficient liquid operating reserves
  • Key liquidity metrics and benchmarks to calculate and monitor for your organization

Intended Audience: Anyone seeking an introductory understanding of key liquidity metrics or cash flow management. This training is aimed primarily at those who have little to no experience with government funding.
