Raising the Standard: Best Practices for Your Cash
Raising the Standard: Best Practices for Your Cash
Smart liquidity management isn’t just about moving money. Rather, it’s about maximizing impact, protecting public resources, and making every dollar count for the people you serve. This area of finance holds enormous potential to strengthen your bottom line without raising taxes, cutting services, or adding pressure to your team.
That’s why more public entities, higher ed institutions, and non-profit agencies turn to cashVest, a solution designed to help public dollars reach their full potential through data, insight, and trusted support.
Clearing Up Common Misunderstandings
“Our cash is already fully optimized.”
Traditional cash-flow accounting makes it seem that way, but in reality, many funds sit idle or underperform due to uncertainty around their availability. cashVest helps identify how long each dollar can be safely put to work, so you can capture new earnings without disrupting operations.
“Liquidity management is just forecasting.”
Forecasting matters, but it’s only one piece of the puzzle. See your full financial picture; day-to-day operations, reserves, and idle cash, so you can act strategically across all timeframes, not just the short term.
“We don’t have the staff for something like this.”
That’s exactly why cashVest exists. Our tools and team are built to support your staff, not stretch them. With automation and hands-on guidance, you’ll gain clarity and capacity, without adding to your workload.
