The extension of FDIC insurance and other responses to the financial crisis have changed the value proposition for leaving money just sitting in the bank.

HealthTrans, Little Caesar and Western Container, like many middle-market companies, use a blend of ingenuity and enhanced traditional cash management techniques to preserve liquidity, cut costs, conserve working capital and prevent losses.
