Cash management is a critical topic in any arena today, cash is king in any organization and is often the most overlooked in conventional asset management terms.

The book is less conceptual and more rule-driven, to be used by anyone whether consultative, banking, leadership, business analysis, etc. - John Herndon, Adjunct Professor, Cal. State University
