What is Financial Planning?

Discover the definition and importance of financial planning on this page. It involves estimating the capital required and determining competition, as well as framing financial policies related to procurement, investment, and administration of funds for a business.

It also has several objectives, such as determining capital requirements, capital structure, and financial policies regarding cash control, lending, borrowings, and more.
