SLG Treasury Management Systems: Use, Function and Integration 2023 | Schwabe, Ley & Greiner | 24 May 2023 | Online Event

The development of a modern treasury system landscape offers immense advantages in the areas of automation, transparency and security - but is also associated with a number of challenges. We show what state-of-the-art treasury system landscapes look like, which functions treasury management systems (TMS) offer and how to successfully implement them. We not only go into the functions in the areas of cash management, payment transactions, instrument management and risk management, but also examine the question of how the processes must be designed so that they can also be mapped on the system side.
