When it comes to the notion of business, as a rule, an economic system or an organization engaged in the exchange of products or services for one another or for money is implied. One more widespread definition of business describes an organization or entity employed in industrial, commercial or professional activities. All types of business are closely linked to finance.
Finance not only plays a leading part when a new business entity is formed, but acts as the key factor fuelling its growth and expansion. Finance can be determined as a process of money creation, movement and usage. In case any element falls out of the finance process, companies involved in it may be forced to halt their business operations and even go bankrupt. The role of finance becomes increasingly important given technological advantages which open new opportunities for financial planning.
