TreasuryCast

Global logistics giant Maersk has reimagined how its treasury operates across Europe, reducing hundreds of euro accounts to a single centralised structure – and winning a TMI Award in the process. Working in partnership with BNP Paribas, the company has tackled legacy complexity, strengthened liquidity control, and built a scalable model for the future of cash management within the SEPA zone. Here, the project team share their insights and key learnings for other treasury professionals wanting to follow suit.

Instead of being in a "constant state of reaction", treasuries should focus on adaptability to ensure change feels manageable as opposed to a continuous run of hurdles. Here, Mark Appelman, CEO Bank Mendes Gans (BMG) outlines his organisation's philosophy as it strives to assist clients to future-proof their treasury departments.

Corporate treasury is entering a new phase, with tokenisation moving from concept to deployment. It spans high-value transactions and even programmable ESG-linked flows, and while the shift is subtle for now, it promises to reshape how money moves, how risk is managed, and how treasury connects to the broader business.

A bank deploying virtual accounts technology does so not only with a keen eye on what it will provide for its corporate clients but also how the solution can further its relationships with those clients. A recent TMI TreasuryCast featuring Cosimo Rullo, Vice President, Payments Cash management & Open Banking, Intesa Sanpaolo, and Joost Bergen, International Business Development & Strategy, Montran, put those twin values to the test.

In this episode of Treasury Beyond Borders, Rahul Badhwar (HSBC) provides valuable insights on how corporates can navigate uncertainty across rates and currency volatility. Our guest explores practical strategies for risk management, stress-testing risk frameworks, and leveraging AI for thorough, reliable forecasting. Tune in to learn how treasurers can stay resilient, safeguard margins, and adapt to uncertainty in today's dynamic markets.

APIs and AI are transforming how treasurers manage money and data. From instant payouts and live balances to AI-assisted onboarding, the pay-off is showing up in faster cycles, cleaner integrations, and better decisions.

Over 130 treasury professionals – including young talent – gathered at BNP Paribas' offices in the heart of Paris to mark ten years of the Journeys to Treasury initiative with a day of exploring the past, defining the present, and shaping the future. While the agenda stretched from 2016 to 2035, the underlying message was consistent: transformation is no longer coming, it's already here and operational. In other words, the future is now.

In this special edition of TreasuryCast, Ben Poole (TMI) sits down with Tjitze Auke Rijpkema to explore how Accell Group accomplished the remarkable transformation from an external notional pooling structure to a fully integrated in-house bank, spectacularly achieved in only three months.

They discuss the challenges and process changes behind the project, and the practical impacts on internal and external payments, automated sweeping, TMS integration, and reporting. Tjitze also shares the tangible benefits for treasury and actionable takeaways for treasurers considering a rapid in-house bank implementation.

When DEME began transforming its treasury operations in 2017, it had a clear objective: to create a centralised, robust function capable of supporting a growing, globally active business.

For this special edition of TreasuryCast, Ben Poole (TMI) sits down with Geert Wouters, the company's Head of Structured Finance, to discuss how the team has tackled everything from forecasting blind spots to embedding ESG in financing, positioning the department as a strategic partner that contributes meaningfully to the company's performance, resilience, and growth.

Eleanor Hill (TMI) speaks with John Velis and Alexander Cadmus (BNY) to uncover whether 2026 could prove a genuine inflection point for liquidity, funding and hedging. From shifting rate paths to front-end curve dynamics, they unpack the forces converging to reshape treasury decision-making.

Our guests discuss segmenting cash effectively, deciding between secured and unsecured funding, and staying prepared ahead of tighter execution windows. Along the way, they tackle regulatory shifts, cross-currency strains, and digital market pressures, providing clear priorities to strengthen balance sheet resilience for the year ahead.
