Catch up on sessions from this year's summit.

The region's premier treasury event returned to our virtual platform for 2021

Attendees joined us for strategic insights, a benchmark against best-practice, and key learnings to take away and apply to their own treasury teams and operations.

By utilising our network of treasurers across the region as well as our dedicated Middle East Advisory Panel, the event covered the key challenges today and opportunities ahead for treasurers. We delivered in-depth insights and conversation points on the treasury topics that matter, providing treasurers with the expertise and knowledge to succeed, both in consideration of technical skills, as well as those surrounding leadership and development.

As we move through 2021, the global pandemic has provided an opportunity to show the importance of treasury operations, risk management, and resilience to prepare for times of difficulty. Taking the challenges from the crisis and turning them into opportunities for growth was a key pillar of the event in September. Take a look at this year's agenda.
