Information herein is considered proprietary and confidential. The Expanding Role of the Treasurer: Are they the new Co-CFO?

The CFO and the Treasurer 2 CFOTreasurer The person who is responsible for accounting, budgeting, financial analysis and the oversight of insurance, health insurance, real estate, banking, accounts receivable and legal issues. The CFO is the highest financial officer in a company. This position often works in conjunction with the Chief Executive Officer, or CEO, and reports directly to the owner of the company or the board of directors. The person who is responsible for managing financial risk for the company across credit, currency, interest rates and operations. In business, a CFO generally oversees the performance of a Treasurer. The Treasurer’s primary responsibility is to ensure the organization has adequate liquidity to meet its ongoing requirements

There were 972 million internet users in Today there is over 3 billion. By 2013, there were officially more mobile devices than people on earth. In 2005 only 68.7 % of adult Americans owned a cell phone and a mere 42% said they leave their cell phone on “Always”. 10 Years ago our pockets weren’t large enough to hold a music player. Today, streaming via the cloud is the norm with 75% of the population saying they listen to music online. It’s a changing world 3 The world has changed a lot in the past 10 years. The rapid development of new technology and the changing landscape of the online world has changed the way we work and, for many, where we do our work from.

The Best CFOs balance accountability to shareholders for maintaining the integrity of the financial statements and for applying risk management while being loyal to the CEO. CFO’s increasingly contribute to organizational strategy and are meeting unprecedented demand for their unique perspective and discipline. The CFO remains an objective voice of financial performance but contributes to operational decision making as well. CFO’s manage or materially support information technology, investor relations, real estate and strategic M&A… and some are involved in commercial activities. The necessity in controlling cost, managing risk and maintaining liquidity has been brought to the foreground by the financial crisis… and this necessity persists. 5 CFO - The Brave New Leader The duties of the CFO have changed dramatically in the post-Sarbanes-Oxley/market meltdown world. CFO’s have emerged as key business partners to the CEO.

The changing role of the treasurer 6 Focus on operational activities New Financial Instruments Improvement in technology More Sophisticated risk management Centralization of roles and processes Closer scrutiny by the board Strategic partner in the company Closer interaction with business units Broader skillset required 1980’s 1980’s to 2008 Post 2008

A Treasurer, also known as a certified treasury professional in certain job settings, oversees the long-term and short-term budgetary goals of a business. They work in tandem with other corporate executives in order to create and meet the quarter-to-quarter budgetary benchmarks as instructed by the CEO. Treasurers focus more of their time on raising capital, coordinating mergers, and doing due-diligence on possible acquisition targets to further the success of the business. Treasurers may also directly oversee a business or in-house financial department where their duties may consist of developing inventive strategies to reduce workplace costs and raise efficiency. The Treasurer: the new focal point 7 Treasurers used to work to monitor the day-to-day finances of a business, but now with the advances in technology and expansion of the CFO role, has created a shift in their job responsibilities.
