Future-proof your business today for stronger performance tomorrow The Stress Test Every Business Needs: A Capital Agenda for Confidently Facing Digital Disruption, Difficult Investors, Recessions and Geopolitical Threats provides a comprehensive approach to creating value and flexibility in an increasingly volatile business environment that presents both great risks and opportunities every day. The authors extend the banking "stress test" concept to a company's Capital Agenda -- how executives manage capital, execute transactions and apply corporate finance tools to strategic and operational decisions. Having a static Capital Agenda, however appropriate for your current market position, is not enough in today's uncertain world. Long-term success comes from building resilience into each element and in the way those elements interact. The book uses a broader definition of business stress that includes traditional macroeconomic and geopolitical risks, as well as technological disruption, hostile takeovers and activist shareholders. Companies that make poor strategic decisions or underperform operationally will likely find themselves facing great stress. And that stress is symmetric; threats come from downside risks and from missed opportunities. The chapters address the how and why of essential issues such as: * Formulating corporate strategy in a digital world * Pre-empting activist shareholders * Restoring distressed companies to operational and financial health * Ensuring effective collaboration among strategy, finance and operations * Getting the most out of your advisors * Proactively managing intrinsic value * Rigorously allocating capital across the enterprise * Acquiring and divesting for optimum value * Syncing financing decisions with business strategy and capital market conditions * Incorporating tax planning throughout the Capital Agenda * Liberating excess cash with leading working capital management practices * Aligning strategic goals and metrics to reach your company's full potential Companies that develop strategy and set operational priorities with a balanced Capital Agenda are best positioned to control their own destiny. The Stress Test Every Business Needs provides a roadmap to future-proof your business today for stronger performance tomorrow.

Do better business, get better results

The Stress Test Every Business Needs shows you how to optimize your business strategy to improve your results. Drawing from recent high-profile cases that illustrate the impact of common mistakes, this book brings the Stress Test methodology out of banking and applies it to businesses in any sector. If shareholder value is created through raising, investing, optimizing, and preserving capital, how can business leaders ensure stability and growth in an era of instability and stagnation? Stress Testing makes every business stronger; by taking a holistic view across your company's businesses, functions, and geographies, you become better equipped to make the tough decisions that draw the line between sinking, surviving, and thriving.

Brexit is showing the world what happens when we insufficiently prepare for low probability/high impact events; Allergan proved that outperforming peers doesn't necessarily ward off activist shareholders; companies around the world prove every day that operating in multiple businesses doesn't always produce a synergistic effect. Missteps like these are preventable, predictable, and avoidable, and this book provides the framework to help you keep your company above the fray.

  • Learn from recent management successes and failures
  • Make your business stronger amidst heightened uncertainty and investor scrutiny
  • Make smart trade-offs among competing investment opportunities
  • Optimize resource allocation to maximize resilience

Companies that formulate strategy and set operational priorities with a balanced investment agenda are best positioned to control their own destiny. Planning is only beneficial when it's effective, productive, and feasible, and structured toward meeting your company's specific goal. The Stress Test Every Business Needs provides a roadmap to better business through smart investment decisions.
