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, Palm and others in this online session. Each business gets just seven minutes to pitch their solution to the Treasury Dragons - and to you.
