Managing Cash, Liquidity, and Risk for Greater Effectiveness

The role of corporate treasury has been changing. In such a dynamic

environment with limited liquidity, treasuries have started playing an
active role in efficient liquidity and cash management. To perform at
optimal levels, treasury departments need greater visibility into – and
control over – the complex processes associated with managing
cash, liquidity, and risk. Treasury departments need to know where
their cash is, where it is coming from, and where it is needed. They
also need to better understand their risks and how to manage them.
Today’s best-run businesses, across a broad range of industries, are
turning to comprehensive treasury management solutions to help
them gain and maintain control over these complex demands, and
by doing so they help ensure that their companies have adequate
liquidity to drive growth and innovation.
