PODCAST | Real-time or right time? Matthew Davies on digital treasury, talent, and transformation

In this jam-packed episode of The Treasury Storyteller, I sit down with Matthew Davies – Head of Global Payments Solutions EMEA and Global Co-Head of Corporate Sales, GPS at Bank of America – for a chat about the forces reshaping corporate treasury.

From his 27 years in transaction banking to the latest on ISO 20022, instant payments, and real-time treasury, Matthew brings a big-picture view that’s sorely needed in these times of relentless change. And, of course, we have a good laugh along the way as well!

We explore:

• Why strong fundamentals (and people!) still matter in a tech-obsessed treasury world
• How to strategically navigate the ‘build vs buy’ tech conundrum
• What ISO 20022 really means for corporates (it’s not just a bank issue)
• The myth of real-time treasury – and why on-time can often be the true target
• How leading companies are future-proofing talent with data, tech, and people skills
• Why treasury isn’t ‘just a job’. It’s a career with global reach, strategic impact, and a true sense of community

Plus, we preview some hot topics likely to dominate the agenda at this year’s Sibos in Frankfurt – from the future of cross-border payments and transactional FX to embedded finance.
