Recovery follows recession, rewarding the companies who made smart strategic decisions in the downturn. We aren't out of the woods yet but the extreme volatility of Q4 2008 has given way to a more pragmatic market. Strategic acquirers such as Google and Microsoft have amassed huge cash warchests. Private equity funds raised money at a record pace in 2007 and are under pressure to put those funds to work. An increasingly global economy has created new opportunities and new competitive threats. Meanwhile, aggressive competitors are trying to take your market share and position themselves to be acquired. How will you respond?
The landscape has changed, impacting every aspect of your strategic plan. It is time to rethink your strategy for funding and liquidity.
