The primary objective of any treasury function in a corporate has always been making sure that the business has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations, whilst managing payments, receipts and managing financial risks effectively And making profits out of other treasury functions (dealings) whilst doing all these.
With the ever increasing pace of change to regulation, compliance and technology in the financial sector, Treasury has increasingly become a strategic business partner across all areas of the business. Treasury departments need to cover the complete financial environment; from capital structure and long term investments to liquidity and working capital management. Large companies automate the majority of their daily financial processing and administration tasks, supported by policy standards, control and monitoring processes.
