About this Episode
Recorded live at AFP Boston 2025, this episode captures how treasury and finance leaders are navigating complexity, doing more with less through automation, adopting agentic AI with strong guardrails and start-small pilots, rethinking cash forecasting by weighing accuracy improvements against cost, and opening up to tokenization, stablecoins, and other digital assets.
Throughout, leadership emerges as the differentiator, setting a vision for treasury digitalization built on real-time data, and AI-driven analytics amid uncertainty.
