Treasury Dragons invites you to their event

Treasury Dragons vs Bank Connectivity and Format Conversion - 2025

About this event

Today's treasury departments can deal with dozens of banks and hundreds or even thousands of bank accounts. Capturing data from all of them, and formatting it to allow for analysis and execution, can be a real challenge.

Fortunately, solutions are available to help with just this problem. This Treasury Dragons online session looks under the hood of best-of-breed bank connectivity and format conversion systems from TIS, Embat, FinanceKey and Atlar in a live Q&A with real corporate treasurers.

This is 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.​
