Event Summary:

A growing number of larger corporations are establishing in-house banks to centralise treasury management systems in their global business organisations. By setting up in-house banks, companies are able to enhance transparency of financial flows and reduce costs and risks related to managing multiple bank accounts and payments across multiple subsidiaries.

Cash pooling is the key driver to successfully reduce number of external bank partners and achieve better control and visibility in the entire treasury management system. With a master account, the cash pooling bank, it is possible to optimise the execution of all transactions through a single point of contact out to multiple banks in various countries.

According to an independent survey many companies have chosen to centralise their treasury operations. Now they are in a position to decide either to adopt a number of regional in-house banks or establish a single global structure.

This international one-day conference will present the latest development within IHB's and cash pooling to sustain a competitive business advantage in the future. Our top level of speaker panel will guide you through the steps to build in-house bank centres in order to increase liquidity and support your company's short and long term strategies in a global business environment.

This conference will tackle key issues such as:

  • Taking advantage of master accounts to optimise cash pooling across different countries and regions
  • Centralising internal financial flow to lower costs and risks in your key markets
  • Building a simple In-House Banking concept to reduce your spread and risks
  • Launching a master account to enable cash concentration internally
  • Improving Treasury & Cash performance through In-House Banking solutions
  • Setting up regional IHB's to optimise your global cash pooling efficiency
  • Exploring Cash Pooling to reduce number of local banks when executing your payments
  • Maximising cash and liquidity to sustain a competitive business advantage
  • Cash pooling: short term financing of your business
  • How to capitalise on In-House Banking to support your long term business strategies
