MFA mission: to help a business to grow, raise efficiency, harmonise.
 
Do you wish to achieve something more and need revitalising? Has the growth of your company stopped, or even a decline started, or you have lost motivation and the sight of your goals? Have unforeseen circumstances occurred? We offer to find answers to these questions together with you:
 

Where we are and what should be done?

Market analysis for a company and products

Data-based analytics and assessment of subjective factors.
Frequently, after the initial market research, business management later relies on intuition and personal observations. Both are valuable sources of reference, but do these observations perhaps have to be verified by conducting a market overview based on the latest possible data and in a wider area? Are there possibly new trends on the market? Maybe the products are known, but your competitors have switched their distribution channels? Could it possibly be the right time to become pioneers and innovators exactly in your company?
 

Defining short-term and long-term goals, company strategy

From time to time, a company has to reconsider its plans. Is it challenging to find the time to set such goals at all because of the daily hurry? Whatever the circumstances are and despite the unpredictability of events, there has to be a goal, a guiding light, towards which the company moves. And both the management, and the entire team have to know this goal.
 

How is it achieved?

Capital and investment management

Capital planning and raising, restructuring, dividends policy. Cash flow planning. Assessment of business plans. Profitability calculations.
How can you balance company growth, investment in development and the desire of shareholders to receive dividends? Do you use own capital or borrow? Buy or rent? Fixed or floating rates? Do you invest in new equipment, business lines, attract new employees? Does the market situation as well as the resources of the company allow it?
 

Business efficiency

Digital transformation, assessment of the organisational structure and functions.
Balance between digital and human resources. Restructuring and reorganisation - how to retain the process in a meaningful way without losing sight of the initial goals. How to avoid consuming more resources making changes merely for changes sake.
 

What can be expected?

Modelling of scenarios. Risk assessment.

The real world cannot be modelled perfectly. But the assessment of base scenarios can help in taking a more informed decision. When being aware of the risks, there are better possibilities to prepare for them. As for a captain - the most important thing is to keep the ship afloat.
 

Planning and management accounting

Financial accounting provides information on past performance. History is important, as it helps to understand the present and predict the future. Management accounting helps to predict what will happen, and what to do next. Well analysed historical data combined with other forms of experience assessment and operational planning allows one to take the best possible decisions.
 

Can it be achieved faster and more efficiently?

Acquisition, sales, merging of companies or business lines

Separation and selling of inefficient business directions. Acquisition of new business lines or companies. Should you proceed alone or together? - the merging option. Sometimes it is necessary to sit down and assess - what business or product cycle the company is in at the present moment. What are the life plans and topical issues of the owners and management? Do the initial goals seem less significant, or have the priorities in work and life changed? Has the time maybe come to revise the vision about your place in the business? Is it time to pick up the pace and move ahead at full speed, or to give a chance to others? Is it the right moment to accelerate organic development by acquiring already functioning companies with their own market share? Each company or person has their own story. Take your time to think about it. When you are ready for action - the mission of MFA is to help with implementing your plans.
