Why Treasurers' Influence Matters

Written by PYMNTS Intelligence and Citi

Treasurers should be on the front lines of keeping their company financially healthy. PYMNTS Intelligence finds that many companies fall short of empowering their treasurers to have maximum impact. Companies with treasurers who have greater influence and integration into business operations reap many benefits. They have more predictable cash flows, expect revenue increases and are agile in responding to market conditions.

"Why Treasurers’ Influence Matters,” a PYMNTS Intelligence and Citi collaboration, explores the relationship between the level of influence a treasurer has and their company’s business outcomes. It draws on a survey of 500 executives, including treasurers and non-treasurers. Explore insight into:

• The relationship between a treasurer’s influence and revenue outlooks and cash flows
• How influential treasurers lead to adaptable responses to changing market conditions
• Non-treasurer executives’ perceptions of the revenue estimates based on their treasurer’s influence
