01: Introduction

There are many ways to finance a business, but financing decisions are ultimately about trying to get the best capital structure in terms of debt and equity.

There are many different finance options within these two broad categories, but the first thing you need to do is establish how much money will be needed and what the payback period will be. Ideally, this should all be established within your business plan.

Financing arrangements are usually of primary concern when starting up a new business or when you are looking to facilitate growth and expansion. However, good financial management should be a built-in management process.Last Updated
