The Era of Digitized Treasury Operations
Treasury management has transcended its traditional role of managing cash flows and risks; it has become a pivotal element in driving organizational strategy and alpha. However, many teams grapple with significant hurdles such as fragmented systems, manual processes, and outdated operating models, which impede agility and effective decision-making.
Overcoming Challenges in a Digitized World
Leading Treasury organizations are embracing digital transformation by utilizing centralized technology platforms and automation to optimize their operations. Here are some notable real-world examples for 2024.

- Eliminating Manual Settlements: A leading financial services firm in Hong Kong completed a rapid 7-month expansion of over the counter and exchange-traded derivatives with Finastra’s support. This initiative enhanced risk management and adaptability, driving growth and positioning GTJAI for success in a dynamic market
