In the circle of budgetary control, Virement is the fantastic (and sometimes fancy) practice of transferring funds from one part of the budget to another during a financial year. 🤓🕺

🚀 Example: A Mini-Drama on Financial Fluidity

Imagine you’re the CFO at Wacky Widgets Ltd. You’ve allocated $10,000 for marketing (some wacky mascot costumes) and $15,000 for tech upgrades. Midway through the year:
