The goal of treasury management is essentially to procure cash efficiently to meet business needs on a timely basis while effectively mitigating risks associated with cash.

(A) Increase FX efficiency

Advising on how to maximize foreign currency efficiency is our forte. For customers operating with 2 or more currencies and regularly convert currencies with financial institutions, FX conversion represents high potential saving area for FX-cient to show you how to keep more money in your pocket while managing FX risks. Our cash saving tactics go beyond natural hedge as timing of inflows and outflows play a huge role in this equation.

(B) Optimize working capital

By definition, working capital is the ability for an organization to use its current assets to meet its current obligations. Shortening the cash conversion cycle will free up more cash; hence, increase liquidity. Aside from improving A/R collection and negotiating better payment terms with vendors, there are often opportunities with treasury structure and setup that can drive to shorten A/R collection and A/P payment lead-time; thereby freeing up more cash to generate ROI.

(C) Review debt and interest arrangement

Changes to organization growth plan are often more dynamic than assessing debt capacity. In an economic environment where prime rates change multiple times in a year or even within a quarter, FX-cient can review your financing needs and your existing credit facilities for opportunity to right-size and reduce the cost of borrowing. Planning ahead is key to avoid being caught off-guard. Further, negotiating for additional credits when the needs arise generally lead to a more expensive arrangement.

(D) Strengthen the treasury ecosystem

A sound treasury ecosystem is the foundation to support the aforementioned services around FX, working capital and debt.

There is no one-size-fit-all design of the treasury ecosystem to all organizations. With years of expertise in IPO readiness and post-acquisition integrations for public companies, FX-cient can advise on synergy opportunities and how to fine-tune your treasury ecosystem to maximize efficiency and cash saving while safeguarding your cash and mitigating risks associated with cash.
