How Automation Unlocks Your Team’s Strategic Potential

Corporate treasury teams deserve better than being trapped in spreadsheets and phone tag with banks. Yet most still waste 60-70% of their time on manual cash positioning and yield hunting—while strategic opportunities slip away.

The Real Price of Outdated Treasury Methods

1️⃣ Talent Trapped in Low-Value Work

Hours wasted daily aggregating bank balances across portals, ERPs, and error-prone spreadsheets
Weeks lost annually chasing brokers for rates instead of optimizing liquidity
Result: Your best finance minds stuck as data clerks instead of driving growth

2️⃣ Errors That Cost Millions

Spreadsheet mistakes leading to cash shortfalls or idle millions
Manual trade errors causing settlement fails or missed yield
Compliance gaps from inconsistent documentation

3️⃣ The Strategic Opportunity Cost

Every hour spent reconciling data is an hour not spent on:

✅ Working capital optimization

✅ Risk mitigation strategies

✅ M&A liquidity planning

✅ Capturing higher yields (manual delays cost firms 5-15 bps/month)
