With cashflow in the first quarter of the new year typically feeling the effects of the quieter billing months of December and January, access to sufficient cashflow reserves can be a little constrained.

Here are two quick-fix solutions to boost your cash reserves:

1. Asset Refinance: Revisit recent outright purchases of equipment or vehicles from the last six months. In hindsight would it have been better if they were financed? A simple purchase and hire back option, paired with competitive financing, can replenish your funds without disrupting your options.

2. Low Doc Working Capital: Tap into low-documentation capital facilities for a swift cash boost or an ongoing overdraft-like solution that’s there when you need it, repayable and accessible on your terms.

It may also be beneficial to fund your insurance premiums. To learn more about Insurance Premium Funding, have a read of our blog: finlease.com.au/blog/insurance-premium-funding/

The Senate Economics Committee has rejected the Food Donations Bill that proposed a tax offset for companies donating excess food to food relief agencies rather than dumping it. While the bill had the potential to deliver the equivalent of 100 million meals to food relief organisations, the committee said it had “serious concerns” including the bill’s “generous” tax concessions. Food relief agencies and social welfare organisations have questioned the committee’s decision to reject the bill outright rather than make recommendations for amendments.
