The treasury function in Europe is undergoing unprecedented change: from recent events like the energy shock, the Ukrainian war, to the day-to-day activities such as payments, cash and liquidity management, new regulations, to longer term mandates such as combatting the effects of inflation, fine-tuning the balance sheet, green finance, and constant cost pressures to lower the total cost of ownership (TCO).
In this webinar, treasury and technology experts will discuss the latest treasury and treasury technology trends to look out for in 2023. How can Treasurers, COO’s and Risk Managers keep up and steer their bank to profit and growth?
- The effects of inflation: refinement of Liquidity Management / FX volatility
- Diversification of financial products including “Green Finance”
- Regulatory mandates / EMIR REFIT – the need for more granular data
- Driving digitalization forward with tight budgets
- Inadequate treasury systems infrastructure / latest cloud trends
