# Video: Working capital - what your financier needs to know (Part II)

WRITTEN BYJames Price | JPAbusiness

This week we're sharing Part II of our video series on **how to communicate with your bank, financier or investors**, and what pieces of information to share, if you’re looking to secure funding in the current environment.![slide for blog 0505](https://blog.jpabusiness.com.au/hs-fs/hubfs/slide%20for%20blog%200505.jpg?width=300&name=slide%20for%20blog%200505.jpg)

The goal is to **ensure your financier has a clear understanding of how your business is tracking**, so they can feel confident in supporting you.

Last week we focused on profit and loss information. This week's [video](https://youtu.be/8jARQzZkFfU) details the **critical elements of working capital **you need to share with your financier.

 

## Use our resources to help you plan for the future
