Agenda Day 2

11:35 AM Fireside Chat: Driving Business Continuity, Efficiency & Compliance through Automation at Scale

As the financial landscape evolves, automation has become an essential tool for treasurers seeking to streamline processes, ensure compliance, and maintain business continuity. The pressure is on to implement systems that not only handle the complexities of today’s treasury operations but also provide scalable solutions that adapt to future challenges.

 

This discussion-based session will explore how treasury leaders are actively integrating and scaling automation within their systems to drive greater efficiency and compliance. Leaders will share insights into the practicalities of embedding automation across treasury and beyond, providing clear strategies for large organisations to stay ahead of the curve. Learn:

 

  • How can treasuries identify key opportunities for automation, not only within treasury but also across financial departments, to drive efficiencies and reduce manual workloads?
  • What steps can be taken to seamlessly integrate new automation systems into treasury operations, ensuring that they scale effectively without disruption to business continuity?
  • With the increasing adoption of ISO 20022 and new messaging standards, how can treasury teams ensure all file types are up-to-date and compliant across automation systems?
  • What are the best practices for large companies when implementing automation at scale to ensure that systems are future-proof, agile, and fully aligned with regulatory requirements?

 

Join us for an in-depth discussion on how to leverage automation for a more efficient, compliant, and resilient treasury function.
