Event Title:(Draft) Mega-Cap Treasurers H1 2022 Peer Group MeetingEvent Status:ArchivedEvent URL:Click hereEvent Description:

The meeting will be held at the Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay just outside of San Francisco with the main meeting on Tuesday, March 15th. We will have an opening dinner on Monday, March 14th, with a possible half-day session on Wednesday, March 16th. If the meeting is extended, we are planning dinner for the evening of March 15th with a featured speaker. We would welcome member suggestions for our keynote speaker – perhaps a CFO who has expressed or acted on a vision for de-siloed collaboration across strategic finance and especially between FP&A and treasury.


The meeting will feature several timely and topical sessions, including one or two joint sessions with the NeuGroup for Mega-Cap Heads of FP&A, so it would be great if members could share live or recent examples of collaboration. In addition to holding our usual Projects & Priorities session, we intend to have sessions on 2-3 of the below topics.


  1. Managing Upward
  2.  How do treasurers manage their relationships with the CFO, CEO, and the Board? How does treasury build a rapport and gain a seat at the table? How can topics such as capital structure optimization and interest rate risk management provide treasury with the opportunity to demonstrate its critical contribution to enterprise value?
  3. Treasury and Carbon Emission Targets
  4. What is treasury’s role, and what tools does it possess, to drive down reported carbon emissions? How can treasury work with the sustainability team and get aligned with corporate reporting, audit, and other stakeholders? What examples can members share of what they have done to date (e.g., VPPAs)?
  5. Optimizing Treasury for Scalability
  6. How have members balanced the benefits and challenges of centralization and decentralization? How have they utilized process standardization and end-to-end process ownership and automation to migrate activities to shared service centers so treasury teams can focus on strategic initiatives and tasks? What contributions have Centers of Excellence made to enhancing scalability efforts?
  7. Questioning Everything
  8. How can members future-proof their treasury by questioning the status quo? How do you even go about this exercise? Are you reporting on items that are no longer relevant? Are there opportunities for outsourcing mundane tasks to either a shared service center or a third party? What technologies are becoming game changers in transforming treasury processes?

Join us for this exciting research debrief session to discuss the findings of a survey we conducted in partnership with NASP, Fitch Ratings and Sustainable Fitch in December of 2022. The survey's objective was to identify common and best practices in how treasuries work with diverse-owned firms when issuing debt and investing cash and pension assets. 

Key takeaways include:

  • Treasury is leading the charge in working more closely with diversity firms rather than responding to requests from the CFO and/or the Board. 
  • Companies expect to increase the share of transactions and cash and portfolio assets allocated to diverse-owned firms.
  • The most successful D&I treasury initiatives involve actively seeking engagement with minority-owned firms and a highly engaged CFO.

Event Title:FX1/2 | Hedging Approaches to High Cost of Carry CurrenciesEvent Status:CompletedEvent URL:Click hereEvent Description:

For many companies, the decision to hedge is based on exposure size and may move forward layering in tranches to protect against exchange-rate volatility. However, this 'a+b=c' approach doesn't factor in the true cost of hedging, particularly for currencies with high cost of carry (the net cost of holding a position). A more holistic picture of hedging costs is needed to make more accurate and strategic decisions.

During this roundtable session of the NeuGroups for Foreign Exchange, Robert Mutagwaba, Manager, Treasury, Equinix, will discuss recent efforts at his company to determine if and when cost of carry should factor into hedging decisions. We will also look at aggregate results from a recent benchmarking survey on the topic. Participants will consider: 

  • How cost of carry factors into exposure management
  • Metrics applied to hedging decisions
  • Is there a line in the sand? To hedge or not to hedge

Event Title:Retail Treasurers | Retail Cash Deposit Strategies, Including Cash by MailEvent Status:CompletedEvent URL:Click hereEvent Description:

Transporting cash has always been a challenge for Retailers with multiple locations. That problem has only been exacerbated by Covid, shrinking bank locations and services, and a confusing array of new options.  The cash process can be categorized into three areas: 1) handling the cash in-store (smart safes, “dumb” safes, cash recyclers, etc.), 2) making reconciliation and tracking across sometimes thousands of stores easier (the main topic of our December session) and 3) figuring out ways to transport the cash from multiple store locations to banks securely (armored car, cash by mail, etc.) 

In this session, we address this third area (including cash deposits by mail) and have asked members including Dollar Tree, Walmart, Columbia Sportswear, Office Depot, Ross Stores and others to share their current frustrations and the options they have considered. Discussion points are expected to include:

  • Outlining the different challenges depending on number of store locations (<100 vs thousands)
  • Vendor solutions (Armored carriers like Brinks et al, UPS, bank offerings, etc.)
  • Maximum $ amounts per package datapoints
  • Security concerns
  • Questions about accountability and compliance by USPS”
  • Armored car services invoicing - Outsourced or managed in-house?
  • Identifying best practices

We look forward to a tactical discussion designed to provide solutions for our members based on real-member experiences.

This session will also include a short discussion on topics of interest for the Retail group for 2023.

After a few months of sessions with outside guests, we return for an open members-only session for April.

The Retail Treasurers have volunteered a multitude of topics they'd like to cover in 2023, including:

  • Managing people -  Org structures, hiring challenges, returning to in person, titles, insourcing vs. outsourcing, building specialists vs. generalists, etc. 
  • Using AI for things like cash forecasting – what are people doing?
  • How companies measure return on invested capital (ROIC) / return on investment (ROI).  KPIs, how do you report on it internally, what do you share with your board, do you do audits, are people using cash-flow based or accounting measures, does it impact senior management incentive comp, etc.
  • How people are thinking about counterparty limits, bank selection, especially in light of SVB.  Do they use credit ratings? If so what is your minimum, what other tools are you using, do you look at new headlines, dollar limits, etc.
  • Managing cash deposits and working armored car carriers
  • Payments.  Always payments.

In this session we will be looking for members to share their priorities in discussing these topics, as well as share recent wins and learnings they've garnered as they manage their businesses.

Event Title:Global Cash | APIs: Beyond Bank ConnectivityEvent Status:CompletedEvent URL:Click hereEvent Description:

APIs are one of the biggest trends in treasury technology, with applications for bank connectivity, integrating ERPs and connecting app marketplaces that unify data and processes for treasury teams. With all the potential benefits that APIs deliver, concerns remain that bank connectivity would mean "one-off" adaptations and that treasury teams would need to substantially disrupt their technology infrastructure to move forward with various solutions.

In this session, experts from Kyriba will lead discussions to highlight the numerous opportunities that APIs present and explore how they help with more than just bank connectivity, to complement, rather than replace, what's in your treasury technology stack.
