Issues and trends within the industry
Multichannel
In this point of view, we consider the evolution of the retail sector through the emergence of the connected consumers. We discuss the importance of truly integrated multichannel retail capabilities in serving this new consumer and the opportunities it represents in a low growth environment.
Cash and Liquidity
Liquidity is the biggest problem facing many consumer businesses today. Banks are reluctant to provide new lending or even renew existing facilities. As the economy has slowed, more and more businesses are challenged in servicing their debts and ensuring adequacy of working capital.
The Changing Consumer
With consumers’ disposable income squeezed by the reduced availability of cheap credit, and their desire to spend impacted by falling confidence, it is not surprising that shopping habits are changing.
