Small Business Financial Fitness Series

The Albany Park Chamber is launching the Small Business Financial Fitness Series, presented by Wintrust Bank!

Just like physical fitness, keeping your money healthy requires a consistent routine that you track and strengthen regularly. Grounded in the official FDIC Money Smart for Small Business curriculum, this four-part webinar series provides aspiring founders and established small business owners with simple, practical tools to plan, manage, and protect their finances. Whether you are launching a new startup or growing an existing company, understanding your numbers is key to building a strong, resilient business.

Part 4: Risk Management

Just like warming up and stretching before a workout, risk management is about preparing your business to handle tension and preventing unexpected injuries before they happen. Every small business faces uncertainties - from property damage and liability issues to operational disruptions and economic shifts.

This final session guides you through auditing internal and external vulnerabilities, choosing the right insurance coverage, and creating a contingency plan for situations you can and cannot control so your business stays resilient through any challenge.
