INTRODUCTION

The role of corporate treasury is becoming increasingly strategic and aligned to the organizational objectives – helping business continuity, funding long-term growth, innovations
while managing financial risk. Corporate treasuries today are expected to take on value-adding roles of being a business advisor while also looking at converting treasury into a
profit centre.

Corporate treasury also has faced quite a different landscape in 2021 – 22. Some political situations have settled but there is a lot more to go – new methods of business, ESG and
green financing, changes in regulation and compliance globally, transitioning LIBOR, currency movements, the escalation of trade wars, major commodity price shifts and supply
chain shocks to mention a few.

Treasurers are exploring new ways of performing the operations keeping cost, efficiency, and better risk management their priority. Most treasurers are turning towards technology
to centralize and automate treasury operations. Technology is considered as “the enabler” to change in treasury also given that remote working has now become the new normal.
There is a lot of innovation happening in the entire eco-system to make treasury borderless with minimum risk exposure.

6th Annual Treasury Management India Summit & Awards 2022 will focus on how to a build roadmap for better liquidity & working capital management techniques, cash visibility &
forecast, investment strategies, ensuring good governance, risk & compliance (GRC) policies. This summit will bring the community under one umbrella to discuss the learnings and
innovation from the first phase of the pandemic and use this phase as an opportunity to promote sustainability and growth.
