What Treasurers Should Know: Fintech Disruption

To inform corporate treasurers of the changing landscape, the banks, SAP and the European Association of Corporate Treasurers (EACT) have published the first “Journeys to Treasury” report, which they intend to issue annually.
The next five years of financial services could see significant disruption from FinTech players, the report warns. For corporate treasurers, FinTech can pose a threat to their operations. But it also offers significant opportunity.
