Cash Reporting & Forecasting
Insightful reporting for practical day-to-day decision-making and for longer-term strategic planning
Having visibility over cash balances and insight into future cash flows is an essential element of financial management for any organisation. However, accessing accurate and meaningful information relating to cash flows quickly becomes complex in international organisations.
FTI Treasury offers a cash reporting and forecasting service to clients that produces insightful reporting that can be used both for practical day-to-day decision-making and for longer-term strategic planning. Our solution uses market-leading cash reporting and forecasting software to consolidate relevant data in bespoke client-specific formats, allowing our clients to understand exactly where their cash resources are held at any point in time and how cash flows and balances will change in the future.
We integrate data from client ERP systems, Banking Systems, SWIFT, Treasury Management Systems and Payroll Systems in order to automate the reporting and forecasting process as much as possible. We deploy web-based applications to ensure global access to both view and input cash data, ensuring relevant reporting is available on consolidated, business line and business unit levels.
