This special episode of the Strategic Finance Lab features a recording of a recent NeuGroup panel featuring WestCap founder Laurence Tosi and Treasury4 co-founder Ed Barrie, moderated by NeuGroup founder and CEO Joseph Neu.

The conversation explores what it means to adopt a “treasury-first mindset,” with insights from seasoned finance leaders on how treasury can evolve from a support function to a driver of enterprise value. Mr. Tosi, former CFO of Blackstone and Airbnb, explains how improved cash visibility, FX optimization and data infrastructure can help turn treasury into a value creation center. Mr. Barrie shares lessons from his time at Microsoft, Itron and Tableau and outlines the product vision behind Treasury4.

Listeners will hear why WestCap chose Treasury4 as a strategic partner—and why both speakers believe treasurers are uniquely positioned to lead in a future shaped by real-time payments and embedded financial intelligence.
