FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT FOR ENTREPRENEURS/CEOS



July 13-15,2017.Abuja.
Course Overview
This three-day practical workshop will expose entrepreneurs/CEOS to the science of running a business profitably, on a sustainable basis.

Financial Management deals with the procurement or generation of funds (money) and their effective and efficient utilization, to achieve the overall business objectives.

Procurement and generation of funds are two distinct elements of financial management, which rudiments should be well digested and understood. Effective and efficient utilization of such funds are also very critical. An entrepreneur could be effective but not efficient, or efficient but not effective. It is however desirable that he should be both effective and efficient in the management of business funds.
Also, today’s entrepreneurs/CEOs need to be more financially learned more so than ever before. Even if they do not have to manage budgets or finances themselves as part of their role, they still need to understand the financials of their company, what it all means and the impact of their actions on the bottom line..
Course Objectives/Benefits
 A thorough grounding that illustrates how an entrepreneur could be both effective and efficient in the management of business funds, for optimal profitability and wealth maximization.
 Insights into what working capital, cash flow management and all of the financial statements of a company means from a “non-financial expert” point of view, explained in easy to understand financial language.
 How to appropriately price your product or service, for all stakeholders’ satisfaction.
 Entrepreneurs would also be guided through the rudiments of basic financial and tax planning, budgeting and enterprise risk management, to reduce the risk of business failure.
 The course also offers an immense opportunity for networking with other entrepreneurs and CEOs across Africa. .

Mohammed Dewji: A Made in Africa success story

Mohammed Dewji has built his family business from a $26m  trading and distribution company importing goods into Tanzania  into a manufacturer of multiple products and one of Africa’s few companies with revenues of over $1bn. His next target is to generate $5bn of revenues by 2020 and employ 100,000 people across Africa. Dewji is unassuming and doesn’t seek the limelight. However, this quiet demeanour should not fool you. Dewji is direct and to the point. He was voted Business Leader of the Year at the African Business Awards in 2015 and headed the Institut Choiseul’s list of leading young African economic leaders in 2016. As one tracks his career it is obvious to see why. His major feat has been to oversee generational change in the family business and, along with this, its complete transformation, growing its revenues from $26m in 1999 to over $1.5bn last year. He acknowledges the head start he received from being born a Dewji. The family business was very succes...

Building a profitable green economy in Africa

Viewed from a dramatic granite formation jutting above the town, the central Ugandan settlement of Soroti doesn’t amount to much. A series of low-rise rectangular buildings, drifting off into a featureless hinterland, it appears a regional administrative and commercial centre of little importance. Yet in December, European Union and Ugandan diplomats, wielding commemorative spears and greeted by brightly attired locals, gathered to cut the ribbon on a development that could put this backwater firmly on the map. Soroti’s vast solar plant is the largest of its kind in  East Africa , a sprawling site of over 32,000 photovoltaic panels that will add an initial 10MW of electricity generating capacity to the local area. Backed by development funds from European taxpayers and foreign private capital, the $19m project aims to power up to 40,000 homes, schools and hospitals, while kick-starting regional economic growth and delivering profits to its commercial backers. It is on...

Property CEO talks about opportunities in the Kenyan market

  The Greenspan shopping mall in Nairobi In November 2015 the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE) listed its first real estate investment trust (REIT), the Stanlib Fahari I-REIT.  The fund currently owns three properties in Nairobi – the Greenspan shopping mall and two mixed office and light industrial properties. It is now looking for additional investments. How we made it in Africa  talks to Fahari’s CEO, Kenneth Masika, on introducing a new security to the market, as well as some of the opportunities he sees in Kenya’s property sector. Below are slightly edited extracts.  Is the fund mostly focused on commercial property or is it also looking at residential? At the fund we’ve got a strategy where we want to create a diversified portfolio of quality assets, and so we are looking into the main sectors of property – that is  retail , commercial, light industrial,  hospitality , and residential. But what we are doing, to start with as we...
