AGP Executive Report
Last update: 8 hours agoSME Digitalisation & Cashflow: France’s mandatory e-invoicing rollout is approaching, but about 30% of businesses still haven’t registered for compulsory electronic invoicing, even though free sign-up options are available—raising a practical risk for B2B firms that rely on approved online platforms to transmit VAT data. EV Workplace Benefits: Octopus EV is exporting its UK salary-sacrifice EV leasing model to Germany, offering employees an all-in lease via employers (including insurance, servicing and charging credit), with the pitch aimed at both large and smaller firms. AI for Small Finance Teams: Tyms’ AI-native accounting platform lets business owners connect their live books to assistants like Claude/ChatGPT/Perplexity to ask questions about balance sheets, unpaid invoices and expense breakdowns—positioning AI as a practical cashflow and bookkeeping shortcut. Cybersecurity for SMBs: Researchers warn that some Zbtlink consumer and small-business routers ship with a factory-installed remote-access backdoor, meaning devices can “phone home” for commands—an SMB risk even without a hack. Local Business Resilience: A community rallied to help keep Mount Vernon Records open as the owner fights to stay in business, showing how local support can buy time when cashflow gets tight.
