‘Top performing’英国企业在 债务威胁 这使他们 风险贸易伙伴。根据ReadSoft进行的研究,如果该国陷入衰退,许多人将难以维持付款,威胁供应商合同和业务稳定性。
ReadSoft调查了英国的财务杠杆’营业额排名前600位的小型,中型和大型公司。用一个‘gearing’比率使您能够了解组织的程度’s activities are funded by owner versus creditor funds. A company should be considered more risky to deal with as the 齿轮 ratio climbs. This is because the company must service debts first, to the detriment of suppliers and partners.
Small businesses appear to perform relatively well, but actually exhibit the widest fluctuations in 齿轮 ratio (0.32 to 889.04). Medium businesses were less vulnerable on average, though 齿轮 still ranged from 583.84 at worst to 2.56 at best. Large enterprises, despite very high turnovers were, on average, more vulnerable and slower to react to market fluctuation than their smaller equivalents.
Large scale wholesale enterprises were the most risky propositions based on 齿轮, followed by large insurers and travel companies. Smaller retail, insurance and finance companies also fared poorly in the research when compared to other market sectors. 制造业 presented a relatively constant response across all scale of enterprise, with a higher risk factor as scales of operations increased.
尽管评估‘best of breed’ organisations, the range of 齿轮 and lack of consistency across all three groups and variation within vertical markets suggest turnover alone cannot be taken as an indication of a healthy business.
ReadSoft UK董事总经理Simon Shorthose说: “我们在这项研究中看到的财务效率低下是缺乏对业务流程洞察力的症状。这会导致控制不力,引入风险,潜在的欺诈行为和违反合规性的情况。小型企业以及在最近的经济时代努力保持领先的企业可能会想到这种情况,但是看到这种低效率水平,在大型和大型知名企业中如此普遍,确实令人担忧。”
财务风险可以通过提高处理资本支出,改善现金流和减少债权人债务的业务流程效率来解决。应付帐款和应收帐款功能的自动化可以减轻因昂贵,密集,手动的过程而产生的问题。无论是大中小型企业,ReadSoft都可以帮助公司采用‘best of breed’通过应用一系列基于云的内部部署和大规模自动化解决方案,以快速,经济高效的方式为财务流程自动化提供技术。
