Cash has always been a top priority for CFOs—companies need it to operate. This is especially true in mid-market companies, where working capital provides most of the liquidity. Bad debts and a jump in insolvency in the first year of the pandemic brought this into sharp focus.

• How to lower the cash conversion cycle, while getting the most out of working capital and cash flow
