The Toolkit

THE TOOLKIT IS A LOGICAL conclusion to the material in this book. It contains actual practical and implementation tools that readers can put in use on the job. Here we provide the bases for some of the infrastructural and executional aspects of treasury management including templates, design elements, checklists, and aspects to be considered. The various themes are treasury policy, treasury systems, treasury centralisation, key performance metrics, banks and service relationships, operations and control, outsourcing, and treasury culture. We also explore some real-life examples and case studies.

The various components of the Toolkit are not a one-stop solution to a treasurer’s problems; they are only some of the parts that go into the mix of efficient treasury management. Readers are welcome to adapt any of these to suit their needs, picking and choosing what works for their firm and superimposing firm policies, management approaches, and organisational DNA into the frameworks provided.

We wish the readers all success in their implementations. We would be grateful if you could drop us a line at toolkit@treasuryhandbook.com to let us know which part of the Toolkit you have used in your company and, if possible, share with us a copy of what you have used so we can apply what you have learned to later editions of the book.
