Summary

In this episode, Paul Galloway speaks with Craig Jeffery of Strategic Treasurer about operational complexity in treasury and the hidden costs it creates over time. They discuss how growth, acquisitions, new payment rails, evolving regulations, and fragmented systems contribute to increasing complexity across treasury operations. The conversation explores the impact of manual processes, defects, inefficient workflows, data fragmentation, and poor process design, while emphasizing the importance of end-to-end visibility, standardization, automation, and scalable controls to improve efficiency and reduce operational risk.
