    Cash Flow & Treasury Management

    13-week rolling cash forecast, multi-currency treasury, FX hedging, FD laddering and counterparty-risk policy — liquidity built like a CFO, not a bookkeeper.

    Why it matters

    SVB taught the ecosystem that cash management is a survival discipline, not an admin task. Investors test your 13-week cash forecast, treasury policy and FX exposure before they wire a rupee. This module installs CFO-grade cash, treasury and counterparty controls.

    Scope covered

    13-week rolling direct cash forecast (DCF) with weekly variance
    Inflow stability scorecard (collection cycle, ageing, dunning)
    Outflow control framework (PO → invoice → payment 3-way match)
    Multi-currency account architecture (INR / USD / SGD / AED)
    FX hedging policy (forwards, options, natural hedge)
    FD / liquid-fund / T-Bill laddering for dry powder
    Counterparty risk policy (post-SVB bank concentration limits)
    Cash visibility dashboard (CEO + CFO + Board view)
    How we run it

    Our methodology

    A senior-led delivery sequence — not a template dump. Each phase is operated with your team and external counsel, not handed over as a deck.

    1. 1

      Cash baseline & visibility

      Week 1

      Map all bank accounts, wallets, escrow and float across entities and currencies; reconcile opening balances and instrument the daily cash position.

    2. 2

      13-week DCF build

      Week 1–2

      Construct the rolling direct cash forecast with weekly inflow/outflow drivers, variance attribution and a forward 4-week tolerance band.

    3. 3

      Treasury policy & multi-bank architecture

      Week 2

      Define multi-bank, multi-currency account structure, signing matrix and counterparty concentration limits — board-approved.

    4. 4

      FX hedging & deposit ladder

      Week 2–3

      Set hedge policy (forwards/options/natural), open exposure register, and lay out FD / liquid-fund / T-Bill ladder for dry powder.

    5. 5

      Cadence & board pack rollout

      Week 3

      Install weekly treasury review, CFO/CEO dashboard and the monthly board cash & treasury pack — operated, not handed over.
