The overall responsibility for risk management lies with the top management and the board of directors of the enterprise.

Answer. As stated above, working capital comprises the working assets of a firm. What are these assets? Look at the items in these examples.

  1. A trading business for instance may have to purchase and store products to be sold, paying for them before they can be sold and cashed. A factory that produces and sells products has to store raw materials and finished goods, besides having some unfinished materials under process.
  2. A company may also need to allow the customers to pay later instead of insisting on cash at the point of delivery.

 

 Q6. Explain the concepts and benefits of integrated treasury. Explain the advantages and disadvantages of operating treasury.

 

Answer. The concept of integrated treasury works on the principle that Treasury can be a single unifying force of a company’s activities in the money market, capital market and forex market; and can help the company derive synergy. Synergy is a powerful advantage in business because it brings together two or more activity domains and achieves a total effect that is greater than the sum of all the individual domains.
