Cash and working capital optimization

Our services
Our insights

Working capital optimization is a key element of effective financial management. It focuses on managing a company's short-term assets (receivables, inventory) and liabilities (payables) to ensure sufficient cash flow and smooth operations.

By improving working capital efficiency, businesses can free up cash for growth, reduce debt, distribute dividends, or prepare for future challenges. In today’s competitive environment, understanding your cash position and optimizing resources is essential for maintaining liquidity and agility.

At KPMG, we help businesses gain visibility into their cash position and improve balance sheet efficiency. This strengthens financial stability and enables companies to respond effectively to market opportunities.

Our services focus on optimizing three core areas: receivables, inventory, and payables. We support clients in freeing up cash, enhancing financial transparency, and driving sustainable growth.
