One of the main focuses for boardroom executives in 2015 will be determining how to execute business strategy whilst remaining compliant in an increasingly regulated environment.
This webinar examines how Know Your Customer (KYC) regulation is impacting the corporate treasurer, their banking relationships and their ability to focus on revenue generating activities for the company.
