THOMSON FINANCIAL

Thomson Financial delivers financial information management solutions across thecorporate executive market including a suite of comprehensive solutions designed forcorporate treasury. Treasury functions are critical to financial health, yet manytreasurers still rely on spreadsheets—a time and resource-intensive practice thatimposes significant limitations on treasury and exposes the organization to unneces-sary risk. With spreadsheets:

Resources are wasted. • Only one person can use a spreadsheet at a time stalling productivity.

• Data must be re-keyed into different spreadsheets.

• Continual macro maintenance and support is required to keep spreadsheets relevant.

• Spreadsheet knowledge increases, while valuable treasury expertise goes under utilized.

Opportunities are missed. • By the time the cash position is determined, the best rates have come and gone.

• Ad-hoc reporting capabilities can’t always meet executive demand.

• Cash lays idle in dormant or unreported bank accounts.

Operations are at risk. • Manual data entry leads to errors.

• Spreadsheet expertise is easily lost with staff absences and turnover.

• Security and audit controls are extremely limited or nonexistent.

• The modern treasury faces mounting complexities, and spreadsheets simply haven’tevolved to meet those changing needs.
