"Treasurers tell me the content of the ACT’s conferences is second to none – I believe that’s because we really are deeply connected to the treasury community, and understand them better than anyone. The ACT is putting on this event with the support of the treasury community worldwide – and we are proud to work so closely with these key players in today’s challenging times"
Caroline Stockmann, Chief Executive of the ACT
The COVID-19 situation is accelerating the pace of transformational change within treasury departments, and so this event focussed on both developments in treasury technology but also the wider transformation in terms of people, working attitudes and priorities worldwide.
Treasury is rooted in physical practices, yet the transformation to a digital world is ongoing, with innovative new technologies causing radical change to systems. But transformation goes beyond treasury technology - it’s as much about changing working environments and attitudes that will alter the treasury of the future.
Splitting between the strategic and the operational, topics discussed by key speakers throughout the four days of the Festival of Treasury Transformation include:
All of these topics were covered via a focussed mix of keynotes, roundtables and TechTalk-style presentations, all in a virtual live setting.
This session was a strategic discussion to help you understand the mid to long-term impacts of COVID-19 and identified new practices to fuel the next wave of growth.
