Exposure and Liquidity Management for Corporate Organisations
Corporates such as manufacturers, metal producers and mining companies operate in an increasingly volatile and complex global environment. Their businesses are built around the cost-effective production, storage and distribution of many commodities such as power, fuel, metals, oil and emissions. And for any organisation operating or trading across borders, success also depends on foreign exchange exposure as well as interest rates.
To remain profitable, corporates need to monitor their exposure in order to hedge their investments and returns as well as current and future cash flows.
The other key challenge for corporates all over the world is to manage liquidity. When cash is in short supply, corporates need to make funds work harder and to have a much tighter grip on cashflow.
All of this is happening in increasingly regulated markets, particularly utilities and pharmaceuticals, in which organisations are required to report on their risk liabilities.
In practice, this means corporates are looking for ways to run their treasury management processes as efficiently as possible. It also means trading in cash instruments and managing structured products.
Faced with this complex reporting environment, corporates need to rely on technology that allows them to keep a real-time view of all aspects of their operations.
