Can businesses save for Rainy Days or Invest to Grow the value of their business?

Today I brought Thato Kgasa from Bifm back, to speak on how businesses can save for a rainy day or even invest to grow the value of their businesses.

The one thing I always talk to my SME clients on is having at least a 6-12 months emergency fund savings for rainy days to cover fixed costs such as salaries and rent on days when payments from clients are delayed or there is no cash inflow for whatever reason. One thing about running a business is that rainy days occur more often than not. Now that COVID19 hit, most businesses were hit had because there were no emergency fund savings for rainy days.

We spoke on the how you can save and how much to put aside.

Emergency Fund Savings is not only for Personal Finances but for Business Finances too.

We also spoke on how a business can invest a part of their revenue for different reasons, such as raising a deposit for business growth.

Thato and I spoke on the different products that Bifm to offer for the businesses that need to be making those emergency funds savings or invest for any other reason.

I hope you find this conversation valuable to help you plan better for your business.
