flow of wealth
I am rather sure that you should not use the term wealth here. The correct translation depends a good deal on the larger context. Flow of wealth seems to be used more in the macroeconomic sense of flows of wealth between countries or areas of countries.
Wealth flow is used more in the flow of an individual's wealth.
flux de tresorie is a more standard use for types of gross cash flow.
I hope this helps. I think the broader context is important, and might lead to something different

Please excuse my typo. I meant to say, not use the term revenue, use the term wealth.

Comment: "I think I will go with revenue flow; I agree that wealth is a more macroeconomic concept that would not apply. And yes, the author is native French, but some of the material leads me to believe that he was working with some English terminology in his original text and used his own French versions of those terms."

: Yes, revenue (income), revenue (income) from business lines (probably), total cash flow. A little more context might help nail it exactly.
