Ensuring the policy is still relevant The treasury policy is the road map for the treasury function and it must keep pace with overall business strategy ensuring that the appropriate risks are identified, the right processes are in place for managing and mitigating those risks and that roles and responsibilities are clearly defined and communicated. Performance reporting Reporting and measuring performance is often seen as an additional burden on the overstretched treasury department. Well thought out metrics and indicators, along with a robust reporting framework, can not only be used to measure the performance of the function, but can also help drive high performance. Reducing the risk of operational errors The treasury function frequently manages complex, high-value transactions
under tight time constraints, which can create the potential for operational errors leading to significant financial loss. An operational risk framework that captures, categorizes and analyzes loss events is pertinent to both the banking and corporate world.
Achieving a clear view of the global cash position Organizations operate on a progressively global basis. As a result it becomes increasingly challenging to manage a central view of all banking arrangements. Depending on the relative autonomy of different business units, it may not always be practical simply to rationalize all global accounts. Other cash management methods-such as payment factories and in-house banking- may offer a more successful solution.
Enabling timely and accurate cash flow forecasts Having an accurate and timely view of the global cash position is vital for effective cash flow planning, and requires effective communication between business units. The treasurer may also provide valuable input into the longer term forecasting and budgeting processes and must work closely with the finance function. Meeting strategic plans Creating a funding program that is sufficiently flexible and responsive to achieve strategic objectives requires the corporate treasury function to make sure that its knowledge and understanding of the group business plans are consistent with the level, diversity, nature and maturity of the debt program it has in place. Optimizing Return on Investment With far more options available than simple bank deposits, the treasury function has to ensure that it is using the right instruments and investment methods that can fit both the risk profile and the required level of returns within the appropriate time frame.
