General observations• The Banks need to repair themselves while not turning
credit off • Credit is crucial for growth however this is a complex area
due to the overhang of debt in certain circumstances• Confidence is essential along with consensus around
expectations – what is a reasonable ask of the bank• The banks need to ask what is a viable business and be
more innovative• Both sides have to work hard (a symbiotic relationship) to
close the trust gap• Companies need to provide robust information for cash-
flow lending• Credit demand survey• Views on level of demand & quality of financial function• CFO network
