The Next Generation of Treasury Technology

presented by Alex Williamson, Director of Account Management, Kyriba

The next wave of technology is coming to treasury, offering new levels of speed, transparency, and automation. But leveraging new technology is not just about automating what you do today; it is about understanding the opportunities to evolve treasury to another level.
This presentation will review:

  • What do blockchains and distributed ledgers really offer treasury?
  • Cryptocurrencies: is there a future for digital currencies in treasury?
  • Robotics and artificial intelligence: will robots really take over treasury departments?
  • API Connectivity: how APIs will change daily cash management forever
