SINGAPORE - Media OutReach - 12 September 2018 - A survey by Xero, the global small business platform (ranked No. 1 by Forbes as the World's Most Innovative Growth Company for two years running), revealed that most SMEs face cashflow problems. The three causes attributed to the problems are the lack of accounting knowledge, unable to collect payment and not using the latest technologies.
