An indispensable corporate tool. - Peter N.Tan, Senior Vice President, Hambrecht & Quist Richard Stutely's Definitive Business Plan provides the missing link between entrepreneurs and venture capitalists: essential reading for those who need to bridge the knowledge gap. If this book had been available 30 years ago, life would have been a lot easier. - Mike Brooke, Entrepreneur and Private Venture Capitalist This is the most user-friendly book covering the business planning process that I have seen. It covers the subject in a comprehensive manner and brings some new insights to bear on this very important issue.

I strongly recommend it to all those concerned with business plans particularly in the financial services sector. - Reginald May, formerly Deputy Chief Executive, Access Credit Card Company, Vice President, American Express Distribution Strategy ESG and Chairman 4M+ Associates Ltd
Author Bio
Author: During his professional career, Richard Stutely has gained unique insight into strategic, operational and financial planning from all angles - particularly preparing, approving and using business plans. When he worked at HM Treasury (the British finance ministry), he dealt with business planning on the grandest scale - relating to the national economy and public expenditure controls. During this period he was also involved with world economic developments, parliamentary affairs and corporate taxation, and was a press officer presenting the then-new monetary policy of the Conservative government. Subsequently, as a member of the London Stock Exchange, an investment banker and later a general manager of an international commercial bank, he viewed business plans in connection with debt, equity and off-balance sheet funding. More recently, as managing director of multinational technology companies, he has handled business planning focused on exploiting rapid change.
