Financial Health Check

How financially resilient is your business?

The Financial Health Check examines five core dimensions of financial health to identify where your business is strong, where it is under pressure, and where targeted action will have the greatest impact. It is designed for business owners, founders, operators, investors and advisers who want a clear, structured view of financial performance without wading through accounts.

How scoring works

Each response contributes to a category score (0–100), and category scores combine into an overall score using category weightings. Your result is classified using a traffic-light system:

Green — strong, lower concern (score of 75 or above)
Amber — improvement required, moderate concern (50–74)
Red — material weakness, higher concern (below 50)

Note: where a critical financial category scores in the Red zone, the overall result cannot be rated Green regardless of the weighted average — this ensures severe weaknesses are never hidden by stronger scores elsewhere.
