PG&E10-Q: Cash flow concern

Sub-investment grade credit rating forces PG&E to post cash collateral for energy procurement

What happened

Due to a poor credit rating from one major agency, PG&E is denied unsecured credit by energy counterparties, forcing it to post cash collateral. This ties up liquidity and creates a need for sophisticated treasury and cash management solutions to optimize working capital.

PG&E 10-Q

Filing excerpt
