The last decade has seen corporations around the world pay significant attention to creating efficiency in their procure-to-pay processes. But that’s just a single aspect of a multifaceted, emerging discipline called financial supply chain management and its growing importance.

The opportunity is now for leaders in procurement to take an active role in the area of financial supply chain management. Every single thing a procurement professional does – every decision they make - affects a company’s financial health – be it working capital performance, risk exposure, tax liability, and key financial metrics like EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) and liquidity.

This WEBCAST will present the results of an exclusive new global CPO study – conducted by BrainNet and sponsored by SAP - into the state of the art in financial supply chain management.

You will learn:
• Six critical areas where procurement professionals need to be collaborating with their finance organizations to ensure comprehensive approaches to financial supply chain management,
• Where your own company stands on the maturity curve for financial supply chain management, and
• Which global regions lead the pack in the various disciplines relating to financial supply chain management.
