💡 Finance Term of the Week: Cash Reserve

A cash reserve is money you put aside for emergencies or slow months.

It’s like a safety net for your business — so you don’t panic when sales drop or unexpected expenses pop up.

📊 Why it matters:

  • ✅ Gives you peace of mind during tough times
  • ✅ Helps you pay suppliers or staff on time
  • ✅ Protects you from needing expensive loans at the last minute

🧮 Simple example:

If you normally spend 200,000 XOF per month to run your business,
try to save at least 2–3 months’ expenses as your reserve.

➡️ That means a reserve of 400,000 to 600,000 XOF can keep you going if you have a bad month.

✅ With PlutusPro, you always know how much cash you have and how much you can safely put aside — no spreadsheets, no stress.
