Treasury’s rolle har siden finanskrisen ændret karakter og er i de fleste virksomheder blevet en central del af vigtige beslutninger på det strategiske område. Treasury bliver involveret i f.eks. opkøb og frasalg, working capital, supply chain financing, etablering af shared service centres og meget mere. Samtidig er cash forecasting en stadig vigtigere del af treasury’s ansvar som beslutningsgrundlag for det strategiske arbejde. Derfor invitererer infiniance nu til vores næste kundeseminar i rækken, hvor vi vil komme rundt om netop disse emner.

infiniance will be providing hands-on services to the company, which is in the process of being spun-off from their parent company. This means a whole new treasury setup is being established with a new organisation, new processes, new bank setup as well as a selection and implementation of a new treasury management system. The purpose is to make the organisation ready as a stand-alone operation in preparation of the split.

This task is part of our Treasury-as-a-Service offering, where we can deliver the knowledge, experience, and resources to corporate treasuries of all sizes, for shorter or longer periods of time. Contact us today to learn more.

infiniance styrker sin position indenfor strategisk treasury rådgivning og indgår fra dags dato en samarbejdsaftale med Simon H. Hoffmann fra Treasurer.dk. Parterne vil således kunne trække på hinandens kompetencer og ressourcer på relevante kundeopgaver indenfor corporate treasury.

Flere treasury afdelinger oplever et stigende arbejdspres, og skal jonglere de daglige opgaver samtidig med der skal tænkes strategisk, gennemføres nye initiativer, projekter, og leveres kritisk rapportering til ledelsen. Der kan være store operationelle risici forbundet med et underbemandet treasury. Det kan være svært at danne sig det nødvendige overblik over opgaverne, og ofte foranlediger man sig på få kritiske nøgle-ressourcer.

Infiniance kan tilbyde kvalificerede interim treasury ressourcer – vi kalder det ”Treasury-as-a-Service”.

Sæt allerede nu kryds i kalenderen d. 15. september 2017, hvor infiniance afholder formiddags-seminar på Børsen i København. Så hold øje her og kontakt os hvis du vil have invitationen sendt direkte!

As of May 31, infiniance will be moving to new exciting offices, as we will join the Copenhagen FinTech Lab based on Applebys Plads 7, Copenhagen.

We are looking forward to getting even closer to the fintech scene and be inspired by the ”younger” start-ups and disruptors, and hopefully teach them an old trick or two. For more on our new location and neighbours check this: http://fintechlab.dk/residents

After the summer break, we will invite clients, partners and colleagues for a housewarming and show our new offices. So, watch this space!

Infiniance er til stede når dørene slås op til Insight Events Cash & Treasury konference, d. 16. og 17. maj 2017 i Charlottehaven.

De to dage er fyldt med mange spændende indlæg fra treasury eksperter fra de største danske virksomheder. Så der er gode muligheder for at udvide sin faglige kompetence og sit professionelle netværk.

Programmet for de to dage kan ses her: http://insightevents.dk/cashandtreasury/

Vi ser frem til at møde jer på vores stand på dagen!

The market for treasury management systems is in revolt! New vendors are disrupting the market, incumbents consolidate, and total cost of ownership is coming down. In this dynamic market it can be difficult to navigate the different options. Selecting and implementing a new treasury management solution is often a “once-in-a-career” project and should not be taken lightly.

To share our experiences and best-practise approach, infiniance invites you to attend this free-of-charge Treasury System Selection webinar on Wednesday, April 19^th from 10:00 to 11:00 CET.

Using the Treasury Snap-Check model – which has been developed by infiniance – we conduct a high-level end-to-end analysis of the Treasury department. The deliverables from the analysis include a number of concrete recommendations, a weighted cost-benefit implementation plan, and a scoring of the treasury performance against best-practise. The model is applicable to organisations of all sizes, and the best-practise target is accommodated to your peer group.

infiniance will be providing hands-on interim treasury assistance to the company, which has completed a significant acquisition. The objective is to prepare for integration of all treasury related activities in relation to acquisition, including bank accounts, cash pools, risk management processes and advisory services.

This task is part of the infiniance Treasury-as-a-Service (TaaS) offering, where we can deliver experience, resources, and systems to corporate treasuries of all sizes, for shorter or longer periods of time.

Contact us today to learn more about TaaS.
