from IFZ Talking Finance · host Thomas K. Birrer

🎧 New insights: In a recent discussion with Sophie Boyle, we explored current developments and challenges shaping the CFO function and Treasury landscape. Together, we reflected on how the role of Corporate Treasurers and CFOs continue to evolve in an increasingly complex financial environment, based on Zander’s most recent study titled «Aligning for Strategic Impact». Key takeaways include: 📊 Growing strategic importance of Treasury within the Office of the CFO
🏦 Increased focus on liquidity, risk management, and resilience
💻 Digitalisation and data-driven decision-making as key enablers
👩‍💼👨‍💼 Stronger collaboration across finance functions and beyond
🎯 Expanding role of Corporate Treasurers and CFOs as strategic business partners These insights are also reflected in the latest study by Zanders, which highlights how Treasury is no longer just a supporting function—but a central pillar in shaping financial strategy and stability.
