\nFinancial Control in SMEs<\/h2>\n

The way Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) approach financial control needs to be different to the approach of large organisations. SMEs are not distracted by share prices and can afford to think long term. <\/p>\n

In this course, David Allen encourages accountants to be proactive in the management of their businesses; looking both outwards and forwards and dealing with the inevitable uncertainties that entails. It looks at how new concepts such as risk management and corporate social responsibility should be considered alongside more traditional techniques like standard costing and budgetary control.<\/p>\n

The course contains advice on how to develop a comprehensive structure of financial control appropriate to today’s conditions. The course concludes by looking at how accountants can prepare for a change of ownership.<\/p>\n

About the author of Financial Control in SMEs<\/h3>\n

\"David
\nDavid Allen CBE, MPhil, FCMA, FCIS was employed for many years by the Cadbury Schweppes group, holding directorships of various companies, latterly Cadbury Ltd.<\/p>\n

Whilst with the group, he coined the expression Strategic Financial Management to refer to an approach which enabled the finance function to play a proactive role in the formation and monitoring of strategy, and offered an antidote to short-termism.<\/p>\n

During that period he was also president of the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), chairman of the Management Accounting stream of the International Federation of Accountants, a visiting professor at Loughborough University Business School and a member of the Review Panel of the Financial Reporting Council.<\/p>\n

He retired from all of the above in order to concentrate on the promulgation of the concept and practice of Strategic Financial Management, through the medium of S. F. M. Ltd. This involved writing, lecturing and consulting, and led to a number of non-executive directorships in private and public sectors.<\/p>\n
