Growing · First step

Bankability check-up: will your plan stand up in front of the bank?

A focused review of financial statements, cash and plan, with a written outcome: what works, what a bank would challenge and what to fix before asking for credit.

“Strategy that ignores cash is just rhetoric.”

Who it is for

Is it right for you?

Who it is for

  • You need to apply for financing or renegotiate your credit lines.
  • You already have a plan or budget and want to know whether it holds up.
  • You are growing and want to understand how much debt you can sustain.

Who it is not for

  • You want a “cosmetic” business plan to submit without checks.
  • You cannot provide financial statements and cash data.
  • The business is already under severe strain: in that case you need the Priority cash diagnosis.
What you receive

A written outcome, not a verbal opinion

What you receive

  • The indicators a bank looks at (debt service coverage, leverage, working capital), explained in plain language.
  • Strengths and weaknesses from a credit analyst’s point of view.
  • An indicative estimate of your borrowing capacity.
  • A list of actions to complete before you go to the bank.
  • A 60-minute feedback call.

Documents required

  • Last three years’ financial statements.
  • Up-to-date management accounts.
  • List of existing loans and credit facilities, with repayment schedules.
  • Bank of Italy Central Credit Register report, if available.
  • Any plan or budget already prepared.
Not included
Preparation of the full business plan and negotiations with the banks.

If the check-up shows the need for a full plan or ongoing financial leadership, I will propose the next engagement with a dedicated quote for a business plan or a Part-time CFO.
