“Listening in to what other people are doing, that’s the main thing” 

For a second year, the big Treasury 360° Nordic conference was cheat-started with Training Day, in the afternoon of the day before. With their own in-house bank projects underway, Connie Graversen of Bunker Holding and Sune Rasborg of Cowi could hardly have had better timing with attending the Training Day course on that very topic on Wednesday. Treasury 360° had a chat with them in the coffee break.

Exhibitor stands for the main conference day are being built in the background, as we learn just what aspects Head of Cash Management Connie Graversen and Corporate Treasury Director Sune Rasborg are seeing as the most relevant to their own organisations.  

“I am here as I am implementing an in-house bank – so I wanted to know if there is anything new that I could catch up on,” says Connie Graversen. “Listening in to what other people are doing, that’s the main thing – and seeing whether there are new technologies that need to be implemented, or that you need to think about.” 

Any concrete aspect you caught today that fits something specific in your organisation?

“I think I know most, but I am especially looking into whether there are artificial intelligence solutions that I can look out for.” 

Sune Rasborg sums up his view as “almost an echo” of Connie’s.  

“I’m on the same track with the payment hub and in-house banking. We just implemented a payment hub solution at Cowi, and we are looking to take the next step with an in-house bank. And I’m also looking for inspiration and to to broaden my mind; to see what technologies there are,” he says. 

What are the main improvements you seek with these specific solutions? 

“There will be a better cash visibility, and also fewer bank transactions which means we will not lose days of validation, and we will have less bank fees.” 

Nearly 90 delegates were registered to attend Training Day by Treasury 360° 2024, featuring four parallel four-hour courses hosted by Nomentia and Zanders.
