Explore the issues and actions your company can take to manage cash pressures during these unprecedented times.

Cash is king. In these uncertain times, it is vital to know how potential disruptions to operations can affect your company’s cashflow and liquidity.

Whether you’re facing unforeseen challenges or unexpected opportunities at the moment, you are likely to need to consider the following:

  • Manage cash flows and liquidity with a mind to grow easily and effectively when the economy reopens
  • Reclaim VAT to generate cash and reduce operational expenditure
  • Increase controls around approval of supplier and customer payments, monitor cash inflows and outflows
  • Use AI and machine learning to optimize cash flow and working capital
  • Leverage data analytics to take advantage of favorable terms in negotiations and payment strategies
  • Pay on time, but don’t pay early, and if necessary, consider renegotiating payment terms
  • Get upfront visibility and control of large purchases
  • Maximize credit benefits, get the right spend on to PO, non-po, credit and cash to maximize your rebates and use of the credit available

Our panelists include a well-regarded PwC consultant, finance experts and SAP Concur finance specialist:

ACTS x Deloitte: COVID-19: Recover and Thrive for Corporate Treasury

June 22, 2020 By Secretariat

Dear members,

In this webinar in collaboration with Deloitte, we will explore how corporate treasury could thrive on and recover gradually along this journey by looking at relationships between internal and external stakeholders, changes in working capital strategies, funding sources as well as treasury operations in order to meet the evolving business needs.

Thriving in Volatile Times

The COVID-19 outbreak has caused huge disruptions in people’s lives and created significant challenges to organisations. Many companies’ operations have been negatively impacted by COVID-19; cash and liquidity have deteriorated faster than expected.

Treasury has been on the front line of organisations, facing different challenges such as variance in cash flow forecasting, disruption in financial supply chain, volatility in currency exposures, changes in counterparty risk management, negotiation for emergency funding solutions, long term business continuity plan etc. The economic impact of this crisis is still uncertain and recovery will take months or years depending on the industry. Changes in consumer spending and market demand will also reshape the economic landscape locally and globally.

Deloitte Treasury Advisory will be doing a short presentation followed by an exclusive industry panel with treasurers from Isuzu Motors, Paypal and Rio Tinto sharing their experience and vision in thriving on during this crisis.
