Topic: Investigating Optimization: Considerations To Help Technology Maximize Treasury’s Potential Value
Session Description: The challenges corporates faced over the last two years necessitated an acceleration of Treasury’s evolution to a more integral and strategic partner. In many cases, Treasury’s processes and structures were unsustainable, incapable of producing the outputs leadership demanded during the pandemic and were inept at positioning the organization for long term success post-pandemic. To future-proof Treasury, organizations need to fundamentally, and regularly, evaluate their structures and procedures. The challenge they face is to identify what changes and investments are necessary to support the business’ move from surviving to one of thriving. Our presentation will explore the challenges Treasury encountered, key areas of focus within the current operating environment, and what components to consider in order to meet future demands.

Topic: Modernizing Receivables
Session Description: Within the last four years technology has transformed how companies conduct business. This is a result of the constant request by consumers for new options to pay online and emerging digital payment channels. Recent studies forecast that by 2026, ninety-one percent of the global population will have a smartphone. Regardless of where a company’s technology stands, companies should continuously evaluate solutions to maximize efficiency and automation. This includes looking at one’s digital space and potential transformations. Receivable’s solutions can define how a company utilizes technology, people, and processes to provide value to its consumers. When applied to the right use cases, technology can be a critical enabler for transformation and ultimately modernize receivables.

Speaker: Parimal Hemkar – International Product Specialist, Northeast Team Lead – JPMorgan Chase & Co.
Topic: International Cash Management – Trapped Liquidity
Session Description: As our US-based businesses expand to overseas markets – either to grow their client base or to expand their vendor/supplier network, they are forced to navigate a complex maze of challenges in efficiently managing their working capital: regulatory restrictions, capital controls, equity stipulations and currency controls, to name a few. Working with the right global and local partners, companies are able to build their own customized structures and self-fund their operations to the extent permissible.
