Recap Live Event | Modern Bank Rationalizations and FIS Integrity

The afternoon sessions: what did we learn?

The afternoon sessions featured expert speakers who shared their expertise on important topics. François Rennauld, a recognized expert, presented “Bank Rationalization: The Bedrock of Cash Management,” discussing the transformative impact of effective bank rationalization on cash management strategies. François reminded us about the importance of the fundamentals in bank rationalization and reviewing bank relations on a regular basis.

Andrew Winders, Senior Manager at FIS, then led a session on “Set up Bank Connectivity: Best Options and Practices” Attendees gained valuable insights into how leading treasuries optimize their bank connectivity and explored the best available options and practices in the market. Andrew opened the hood and showed us the technical and other details of connectivity.

The third session was on “Integrity as the Only Source of Treasury Information” presented by Rudmer Wedzinga, an esteemed Treasurer at CitizenM. Rudmer shared his first-hand experience of leveraging FIS Integrity as the exclusive source of treasury information. Attendees discovered how using an all-encompassing treasury management solution like Integrity can revolutionize operations and elevate organizational performance. Keynote: The CitizenM treasury department no longer requires Excel or email for their treasury operations.

“Icing on the cake was the presentation of Rudmer who, in his own recognizable and hilarious style, stressed that common sense and consistent behaviour are essential in building a strong treasury” Pieter de Kiewit

The event concluded with networking drinks sponsored by Deloitte and FIS, enabling attendees to further network and foster connections with industry experts, peers, and solution providers. This networking opportunity allowed for valuable collaboration and the exchange of ideas within the treasury management community.

Attendees of the event were left with practical strategies, expert insights, and an expanded network to support their efforts in optimizing treasury management practices and driving organizational success.

Thank you FIS for having us!
