Morgan. She tells Karen Webster how treasurers can approach their digitization efforts at a time when the future is anything but certain.

The corporate treasurer’s role was dramatically transformed amid a pandemic that fueled the need to optimize financial strategies, rethink business models and embrace digitization like never before. Along that journey, treasurers are turning to their banks for the tools and guidance to achieve their goals. Takis Georgakopoulos, Global Head of Wholesale Payments at J.P.

In corporate banking, the unified, holistic view — of where payments are going, what’s coming in, what it means for cash accounts — is becoming a necessity.

For financial institutions (FIs), five years from now, the data center will be extinct.

FIs pivot to meet the expectations of consumers and enterprises — and here’s how they can do it.

Transitioning to ePayables answers two main pain points for AP: fraud and manual reconciliation. Yet neither buyers nor suppliers feel enough pain to eliminate their dependence on payments via paper checks. Matt Clark, president and COO of Corcentric tells Karen Webster how the re-emergence of platforms in the B2B space may reveal a coming change in attitude.

Accounts payable (AP) processes are anything but efficient, mired in paper and manual labor. Waiting for the fax machine to break is no spur of change, either. However, as Matt Clark, president and COO of Corcentric tells Karen Webster, focusing on people, process and, of course, automation can soothe AP pain points.
