(At an agreed rate, for a predetermined fixed period.)
One of the primary published financial statements of a reporting entity.
The Principal amount borrowed or lent is physically transferred between the parties, and repaid - plus the contracted amount of fixed interest - at maturity.


The Cashflow statement shows the cash movements within the entity, broken down into several categories prescribed by accounting rules - prescribed by accounting rules for external reporting and by management's requirements for internal reporting.


It may reconcile - for example - the accounting profit in the income statement with the total net changes in cash and cash equivalents in the balance sheet.
Not to be confused with a Forward Rate Agreement, which is a derivative contract for differences.


2.
An internal report giving similar information, but formatted according to internal management requirements.
