Smaller Businesses Struggle with Receivables
Smaller companies are preparing themselves for growth. According to this year’s Group CFO Survey, 95% of small and midsize manufacturers intend to invest in equipment this year, and 69% are more optimistic about their financial prospects. Executives of midsize companies, Deloitte also reported, intend to grow their companies this year by innovating, capturing higher-value customers, boosting revenue per customer, and selling abroad.

Firms Struggle with Receivables
All of this, however, is taking place in a less predictable environment. Amid ongoing macro-economic uncertainty, one serious concern for many smaller businesses is with their receivables. The CFO Journal reported recently that midsized companies are struggling to manage their receivables, with 47% of respondents saying that “larger companies have used their bargaining power to force them to accept slower payments.” For smaller companies, this can be a significant problem, impacting working capital and stalling expansion.

Today, smaller businesses in this predicament actually have more financing options available to them than ever before, helping them mitigate prolonged collection periods.
