In our first of a series of articles on capital management, we explore areas including:

 

  • What is the right gearing level and credit profile?
  • How acquisitions are funded – debt vs equity?
  • What is an appropriate dividend policy?
  • What is the maturity profile and composition of debt?

 

There is no capital management handbook. Such decisions require a strategic and structured approach whereby management and the board have agreed a policy and framework for capital management.

 

This article outlines key questions you need to be asking to assess where you are placed in relation to better practice capital management.
