Your CFO's Recession Survival Kit
March 2, 2009

The Panics of 1820, 1837, 1857, 1877, and 1893. The Great Depression of the 1930s. The present.
Economic crisis keeps playing out under all-too-similar scenarios that revolve around speculation and greed. CFOs can count on it as one of the few certainties of life, along with death and taxes. We'll come out of this one -- we always do -- but in the meantime (and nobody will speculate just how long that time will be), there are actions that finance executives can take to help lead their companies into a brighter era and maybe even help them to become better, stronger organizations in the process.
The challenges and opportunities facing finance today fall into three buckets: cash, costs, and confidence. Ninety-six percent of CFOs surveyed by Deloitte Consulting LLP say that during this year they will focus on maximizing cash flows and improving investor confidence. Consulting with and keeping providers of capital well informed of company plans is also a major priority this year. The survey points to a major squeeze on employment levels and investments in 2009; 90 percent of CFOs plan to reduce operating costs, and 77 percent plan to reduce capital spending.
The first place to look for cost savings is payroll, and many companies have already severely slashed their workforce. CFOs must be strategic about where to cut back, according to Jeff Schwartz, principal, human capital, Deloitte Consulting LLP. "Understand first of all where the most valuable employees in the company are," he says. "And finance should remind HR that this is a good market in which to obtain critical talent. But the downside is that your stars are out in the market, too. Poaching goes on in critical skill areas, including finance. It almost runs counter to the notion that when companies are trying to cut back, they need to find ways to create strong relationships with top performers."
