M&A integration is one of the most critical and risky moments in a company’s financial life, and cash is where that risk becomes real the fastest. While CFOs meticulously model synergies and headline costs, they often overlook day-to-day cash dynamics that quietly erode deal value: timing mismatches, unreliable forecasts, and fragmented visibility across entities and banks. These cash blind spots can turn a strategically sound acquisition into a liquidity squeeze, forcing reactive decisions at exactly the time the business needs calm, control, and confidence.
In this session, Vinoy Nursiah (CFO, MeasuredValue), Malak Mossadek (Cash Flow Consultant, Agicap), and Kevin Appleby (COO and Podcast Host, GrowCFO) unpack the real-world cash challenges that surface after a deal closes. They will explore how weak integration of cash processes, siloed data, and overly optimistic assumptions undermine working capital, increase financing costs, and mask underperforming units. You will learn how to build a clear, real-time view of cash across both legacy and acquired operations so M&A integration becomes a cash-confident value creator, not a hidden liquidity gamble.
