What Does a CFO Do When Securing Funding?
Funding & Capital Management Services for Business prepare Australian SMEs for bank finance, private lending, or investor capital by delivering structured financial modelling, debt servicing analysis and capital optimisation strategies.
We know that funding isn’t just about asking a bank for money, it’s about presenting credible, defensible numbers.
Through Virtual Advisors, you gain:
- Investor-ready financial models
- 12–24 month cash flow projections
- Debt servicing ratio analysis
- Capital structure optimisation
- Covenant monitoring
- Scenario modelling (interest rate increases, revenue dips)
Banks and investors don’t fund optimism, they fund clarity and risk management. We ensure your financial story is structured, transparent and credible.
Why This Matters
Poorly structured capital can restrict growth. Overleveraging increases risk. Under leveraging slows expansion.
With Virtual Advisors, we approach funding strategically:
Understanding true borrowing capacity
Negotiating from a position of strength
Managing risk exposure
Protecting working capital
At your level, funding decisions affect every aspect of the business, from hiring to expansion to acquisition.

What financial reports do banks require?
Banks typically require management accounts, cash flow forecasts, profit and loss statements, balance sheets and debt servicing ratios. CFO oversight ensures accuracy and clarity.

Working alongside Josh Gorton has been a privilege. His leadership, dedication, and strategic foresight have been transformative for Plant Grow Pick. When faced with financial instability, Josh was quick to act, steering the company into voluntary administration and engaging BDO auditors for a comprehensive financial review. This decision marked a critical turning point for the business. Josh’s impact extended far beyond financial management. He successfully streamlined our payroll function, ensuring greater efficiency and reducing administrative burden. I wholeheartedly recommend him as an exceptional Financial Controller and mentor, whose contributions have had a lasting positive impact on our business.
Partnering with Josh has been a game-changer for our retail and ecommerce operations. Their expertise in financial product pricing enabled us to structure our pricing strategy to protect margins — even during peak sales periods. They also implemented a systemised POS with robust stock controls, ensuring consistent product availability across all channels while helping us reduce excess stock holdings and improve cash flow. With their strategic financial insights and operational support, we’ve achieved greater stability, improved margin performance, and a more responsive supply chain.
Working with Josh has transformed the way we manage our finances across manufacturing and distribution. Their deep understanding of the industry’s unique challenges — from inventory management and cash flow forecasting to cost control and margin analysis — has been invaluable. They also helped us strategically leverage trade finance facilities, ensuring our procurement processes could meet growing sales demand without disruption. With their support, we’ve improved financial visibility, reduced operational inefficiencies, and made more strategic decisions. Thanks to their expertise, we’re not just meeting our targets — we’re exceeding them.
