FIRMA Advisory offers fourteen treasury and banking consulting services, grouped below by what they solve. CFOs, private equity firms and consulting firms engage them individually or combined, as a diagnostic, a project, a retainer or an interim role.

## Core services

#### Treasury and liquidity strategy

An independent treasury consultant designs how your group sees, controls and deploys cash. The work covers 13 week forecasting, idle cash across entities and funding decision rights.

#### Corporate banking strategy

Independent corporate banking advisory decides which banks you work with and what each one earns. It covers relationship wallet, bank panel rationalization and bank RFPs.

#### Cross-border treasury

Cross-border treasury consulting structures how a multi-country group holds and moves cash. It covers pooling, in-house banks, intercompany netting and trapped cash.

#### Treasury systems and bank connectivity

Treasury system implementation connects your ERP or TMS to every bank for payments and statements. It covers host-to-host, SWIFT, bank APIs and ISO 20022.

#### Treasury process optimization

Treasury process optimization tightens payment approvals, bank mandates and segregation of duties. It ends with a treasury policy that banks and auditors recognize.

#### Cash management advisory

Cash management advisory reviews account structures, pooling and idle cash across your banks. The aim is visible balances that either earn a return or fund the business.

## Cost and value

#### Bank fee analysis

Bank fee analysis reviews and benchmarks every charge your banks bill you. Fee schedules are then renegotiated and verified on later statements.

#### FX cost optimization

FX cost optimization measures what you pay on every trade against mid-market. It ends with lower spreads and an execution policy that keeps them low.

#### Post-acquisition treasury integration

Post-acquisition treasury integration secures bank control on day one. It then consolidates banks and accounts within the first 180 days.

## Client focus

#### Private equity treasury advisory

Private equity treasury advisory turns banking and FX cost into a modellable value creation lever. It starts with a 100 day banking review and repeats across the portfolio.

#### CFO advisory services

CFO advisory services give finance leaders a senior sounding board on treasury and banking. Typical decisions include facility negotiations, bank panel changes and board treasury policy.

#### SME banking advisory

SME banking advisory helps European mid-sized companies get better terms from global banks. It covers fees, FX, SEPA and multi-currency accounts, and the negotiation itself.

#### Treasury build-out

Treasury build-out gives growth companies policy, forecasting, bank structure and controls. Each step follows the order banks and investors expect.

#### Treasury due diligence

Treasury due diligence reviews a target's banking, cash and treasury controls before the deal closes. Findings feed the investment case and the 100 day plan.

## Outsourcing

#### Finance and treasury BPO advisory

Finance and treasury BPO advisory helps companies select and govern outsourcing providers. It also covers banking infrastructure for BPO operators.

## Engage

#### Interim treasurer

An interim treasurer covers the role while you recruit or rebuild the treasury function. The engagement can run on an interim or fractional basis.

#### For consulting firms

Consulting firms bring in a senior treasury and banking consultant as a subcontracted specialist. We work inside your team on the treasury and banking scope of client engagements.

#### Engagement models and fees
