London, 6 May 2021 –Liquidity is not just about short-term cash and knowing a company’s cash position—it’s much more pervasive across the enterprise and a way to boost business partnering between finance, procurement, sales, operations, and IT. Liquidity management tools are essential not only for corporate users but also for banks, as both parties need to interact and complete necessary transactions on demand to optimize the way they manage the organization’s liquidity and deal with disparate data for decision-making.

This report recommends solutions, practices, and digital applications that corporate treasurers can use to optimize the use of company liquidity, while presenting banks and fintech providers with elements to consider when approaching their corporate clients. This report is based on a series of polls that Aite Group conducted between January and April 2021 with 25 corporate treasurers from large and midsize European organizations, along with telephone conversations with liquidity management experts from global financial institutions and fintech vendors.

This 24-page Impact Report contains four figures and one table. Clients of Aite Group’s Wholesale Banking & Payments service can download this report, the corresponding charts, and the Executive Impact Deck.
