Local Market Execution. SHARE As treasury enters the age of AI, finance leaders are rethinking everything from liquidity management and forecasting to payments, working capital and cross-border transactions. Artificial intelligence is changing how treasury operates. Future payment technologies are changing how money moves. Yet for businesses operating across multiple African markets, success still depends on something technology alone cannot provide local insight, trusted relationships and the ability to execute. At Absa Corporate & Investment Banking, we help treasury leaders translate global strategy into local opportunity. From cash management and transaction banking to liquidity solutions, cross-border payments and market execution, we combine digital innovation with deep African market expertise to help businesses operate with confidence across one of the world's most dynamic growth regions. As organisations navigate increasing complexity, treasury leaders are asking important questions: How can AI improve treasury visibility, forecasting and decision-making? How will future payment technologies reshape liquidity and settlement? What opportunities are emerging across African markets? How can organisations manage growth while maintaining governance and control? What role will treasury play in supporting international trade, investment and expansion? Join Absa Corporate & Investment Banking at EuroFinance 2026 in Barcelona from 16–18 September as we explore Strategic Treasury in the AI Era and discuss the trends transforming treasury, payments, liquidity and financial markets. Drawing on insights from AFMI at 10: A Decade of Insight. A Future of Opportunity, we'll share perspectives on treasury transformation, future payments, digital financial infrastructure and the opportunities shaping Africa's next decade of growth. Whether you are looking to optimise treasury operations, improve cross-border execution, strengthen liquidity management or better understand African market opportunity, our specialists are ready to continue the conversation.
