The NeuGroup for MNC CFOs for greater China meets in person for the first time in 2020.

By Joseph Neu During NeuGroup’s second meeting of the fall season, Global Cash and Banking Group members discussed a variety of cash and payment topics in sessions sponsored by TIS. Below are a few takeaways I wanted to share. Cash forecasting: one size doesn’t fit all. One member shared the conclusion reached after six months of benchmarking to find an appropriate third-party vendor to improve cash forecasting, that there is no one-size-fits-all solution.

TIS Wins Family Feud at Global Cash and Banking Group Meeting

In our second meeting of H2 launch week, NeuGroup's Global Cash and Banking Group members discussed cash forecasting modeling, which is not one size fits all, and requires data to back-test a portfolio of algos to match your portfolio of cash flows to get the cash forecast right. If you work for a company that can't hack it, maybe find one that pays more and lets you work from home. Finally, we tied the solution of our sponsor TIS (Treasury…
