Detailed elaboration of the business plan allows the company and its potential investors and creditors to assess the effectiveness of the proposed investment project, its sensitivity to changes in a number of external factors, to analyze the risks of the project and ways to minimize them, and thus - to reduce the cost of capital attracted under the project.
