STATE OF THE INDUSTRY ADDRESS - EPISODE 2018: A NEW HOPE?Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away...It is a period of geopolitical and economic unrest. Corporate treasurers, working at companies across the galaxy are preventing data hacks and fighting the payment fraudsters of the evil galactic empire. Alongside this battle, these rebels are working on plans for a new ultimate digital treasury, an armoured cash management system with enough power to connect businesses across the star systems. Pursued by new regulations, treasurers are turning to robotics and AI as sources of ammunition to help their people and create a futuristic treasury. They are wondering what else this 2018 episode could bring…
09:30
PANEL: AH, HA, HA, HA, STAYIN’ ALIVE: INNOVATING IN THE INDUSTRYOur panel of experts gives an overview of the current economic landscape, highlighting the key areas of innovation that could pave the way for the future of trade and treasury. We examine the potentials of blockchain, AI, Big Data and the internet of things, asking - what steps do banks and corporates need to take in order to apply these innovations, and is the industry ready for fully operational digitization?Moderator:

PANEL: REGULATION: A DISH BEST SERVED COLDWhilst the impacts of Basel III and MiFID II are still being felt across the industry, a new wave of regulations are sure to throw up novel challenges for banks and corporates alike. In a landscape already pressurised by AML, KYC and compliance procedures, we investigate what the revised rules entail, and how they will affect the supply chain. We take a comprehensive look at some of the biggest regulations, including MiFID II and Basel III: - What additional pressures will banks face, and how will this affect borrowers? - What can be done to ensure that the supply chain flourishes?

TRADE & SUPPLY CHAIN TREASURY & CASH MANAGEMENT
14:30
PANEL: WE’RE GOING TO NEED A BIGGER BOAT…Having relied on paper documentation for decades, the shipping trade may be poised for change, as electronic documentation could connect the physical supply chain to the financial. We ask: -How do e-bills of lading work? Will they make a real difference to international trade, or do they fail to mitigate trade risks?-What are the benefits of e-commerce, and how close are we to a fully digitized shipping trade?-What success stories have we seen, and are we lagging behind?-How do we ensure that e-bills of lading are a success, and don’t go the way of the bank payment obligation (BPO)?
PANEL: IS THIS THE REAL LIFE, OR IS THIS JUST FANTASY? NOVEL PROJECTS THAT COULD CHANGE CASH MANAGEMENTThis is a time of change and innovation. Companies are investing in new fintech solutions that could pave the way for the future of the treasury. Hear from people working on these projects about how these partnerships work, as we analyse whether bank/FinTech collaborations make a real difference in terms of bridging the working capital gap, ask if these collaborations do make a big difference, and how we can ensure that the industry keeps up the pace.
C.I.S.O! IT’S FUN TO WORK WITH YOUR C.I.S.O.Across all industries in recent years, cybersecurity has become one of the top priorities for businesses. CISOs and CROs are working to protect systems and data in treasuries to ensure that they are watertight against increasingly sophisticated stings. We examine the best ways to work with your CISO, what best practices are for treasurers and what the cyber security landscape looks like in 2018.

A TRICK OF THE ‘LONG TAIL’ - FINANCING THE ENTIRE SUPPLY CHAINWith treasurers sitting on the cash that suppliers need, and many corporates looking for funds, how can we make sure the entire ‘long tail’ of the supply chain benefits? We examine some of the innovative SCF techniques that are out there, from dynamic discounting to tech enabled solutions, and how they can secure financing for the entire supply chain - without leaving anyone drawing the short straw.Doug Schoch, Vice President, Captive Business - Siemens Credit Warehouse, Americas and Supply Chain Finance, SiemensIon Sclifos, Treasury Manager, Orange
COUNTERPARTY RISK AND THE TREASURY: KNOWING ME KNOWING YOUTraditionally, the role of the treasurer when it came to risk management was mainly to avoid exposures such as interest rates and FX. The corporate treasurer has a number of techniques at their fingertips to analyse counterparty risk; credit quality and adequacy, liquidity, the use of real-time data etc. We look at what makes treasurers most successful when evaluating counterparty risk, and whether the role is likely to involve more risk management as time goes on.
15:00
WELCOME TO THE MACHINE: DIGITIZING THE SUPPLY CHAINThe face of the supply chain is changing drastically. As companies strive to digitize, we explore the advantage of digitizing the supply chain, and assess the main challenges this throws up. -Which specific technologies are utilized, how do they work, and how will they optimize the supply chain for corporate suppliers?-How can we implement long-term solutions?-How will a digital supply chain improve transparency and customer experience?Tim de Knegt, Manager Strategic Finance and Treasury, Port of Rotterdam, Director, BlockLab Rotterdam

PANEL: IT’S ASTOUNDING! TIME IS FLEETING! BLOCKCHAIN MADNESS TAKES ITS TOLL...After another year of grappling with elusive proof-of-concept blockchain technologies, we examine some key case studies, and analyse whether the industry is taking enough of a lead to make any real progress. We ask:- Where has the industry moved past the proof-of-concept stage to tangible, live use concepts?- How can we apply scaleable, workable blockchain solutions that will make real differences? - How, if at all, can blockchain be regulated, and how likely is this to happen?
