Importance of Financial Analysis

A financial analysis is a comprehensive tool which is essential to understanding how your business is currently performing, and how you can allocate resources for improvement in the future.  Financial analysis can help you evaluate your return on investment and also give you an edge over the competition in a down market. “Few things are more vital to the success of an organization than a comprehensive financial analysis. It takes the guesswork out of success and can greatly help your organization from a strategic standpoint” said Brian Johnson BHM’s SVP of Fianciacial and Claims Operations.  In fact now when many organizations are experiencing lower profit margins and wide cutbacks a financial analysis can be an important tool in getting the most bang out of your buck.  It can really help you pinpoint your strengths and weaknesses and adjust your planning strategy accordingly.  Analysis can improve profitability, allow you to set benchmarks, assist your organization in optimizing productivity, and allow you to get a thorough look at your finances situation now and into the future.  Tomorrow I will review the essential components of a financial analysis.
