COVID-19: Financial services summary of financial, tax and accounting measures
This article was last updated on 13 May at 17:25.
COVID-19 is clearly having a significant impact on many UK businesses, although it’s still unclear as to what the full impact will be over the coming months. Businesses are continually evaluating short-term and medium-term liquidity and to do this effectively, it is important to understand what your business can do and which government schemes are available to you. It is worth noting the difference between the schemes that will assist your cashflow and those that will only provide temporary cost savings. Preserving cashflow in the short-term is positive but be mindful that delayed payments will need to be made at some point in the future – and will not aid your regulatory capital resource position. Measures taken to reduce costs will have a permanent impact on your cashflow and capital adequacy as these amounts will not need to be paid down the line.
We have identified below which financial, tax and accounting measures may be relevant to your firm.
