Research from Bibby Financial Services (BFS) finds that women SME owners are more likely than men to suffer cashflow challenges, undermining their growth and ambitions.
Only half (49 per cent) of women business owners report that their cashflow is stable and meets their needs, compared to a significantly higher two thirds (66per cent) of male respondents. In addition, four in ten (43 per cent) female business leaders say they don’t have the cashflow they need to grow, compared to 29 per cent of their male peers – highlighting a 14 percentage point gap.
