Treasury has access to the most complete, real-time view of a company’s financial data—making it uniquely positioned to lead data transformation across finance. Yet, for many teams, that potential is buried under manual reporting, ad-hoc requests, and hours spent answering questions from other departments. This session explores how treasury can evolve from reactive cash management to a strategic data hub that fuels better decisions across the business. Attendees will hear how leading organizations are breaking down silos, building data pipelines, and using automation to empower finance teams with faster, more accurate insights. We’ll discuss practical steps treasurers can take to unlock and centralize data, from implementing APIs and dashboards to rethinking the role of treasury as a partner to FP&A, accounting, and the CFO.
