About this event
In our annual survey for the Treasury Dragons' 2025 Technology Guide, 73% of treasurers named cash forecasting as their number one priority for 2025. That's no surprise: cash forecasting is the foundation of a successful treasury operation, yet one of the least automated. . Generating an accurate forecast involves collecting information from multiple sources, and it's often still done manually using spreadsheets and multiple bank downloads.
Today, many solutions can automate and streamline cash flow forecasting for corporate treasury, and we're looking at products from TIS, Cobase, Panax and Palm in this online session. Each business gets just seven minutes to pitch their solution.
This the latest in a series of online debates in which treasury technology firms present their solutions to our ‘Dragons’ – and to you.
In short, sharp presentations you will see the highlights of each treasury-enhancing system on offer – and then the solution providers will face some challenging questioning from our panel of treasury tough nuts.
It's the fastest way to get up to speed on what's really on offer.
