Hasit Vibhakar Discusses Managing Emerging Markets Liquidity

May 28, 2008 - PRLog -- Over the past few years, US Multinationals have seen substantial growth in global businesses, especially in emerging markets. As a result, many companies have built up higher cash levels, as well as facing increased funding needs, across these global businesses. Hasit Vibhakar Intro.

One of the biggest challenges facing treasury today is gaining the ability to tap into corporate liquidity wherever it is, and putting it to greatest advantage where it is needed. Given today’s altered credit market and economic environment, with higher costs and risks, corporate treasurers are focusing on improving treasury practices within their firms. They are increasingly looking to take more globalized control of liquidity and working capital management processes within their organizations. By coordinating the use of cash across the enterprise, they are seeking to minimize risk, and optimize funding and investment decisions.

In a drive for improved efficiency, treasurers are also reevaluating internal operating processes, seeking to use centralization as a means to capitalize on efficiencies of scale and increase effectiveness. By centralizing and globalizing structures, wherever feasible, companies can integrate global liquidity management processes across multiple countries and currencies. In so doing, companies are better able to take advantage of changes in regulation, technology, and apply the wealth of innovative global banking tools that are available today.
