HSBC Bangladesh holds treasury transition discussion

HSBC Bangladesh recently organised a discussion titled "Treasury in Transition: Navigating Emerging Risks in the Treasury Function", bringing together senior executives from various local and multinational organisations.

The discussion focused on the evolving role of the treasury function, market volatility, and the emerging risks facing the corporate sector in the current global economic environment.

The keynote address was delivered by Rohit Rojario, Managing Director and Regional Head of Business Management and Controls, Asia Pacific, Global Payments Solutions. He said that in today's rapidly changing world, effective risk management within the treasury function has become more critical than ever. He emphasised that organisations need to operate with agility and ensure preparedness well in advance to maintain balance and resilience in the face of potential risks and disruptions.

Global Payments Solutions Head of HSBC Bangladesh, Neowaz Mosharraf, said the corporate treasury function is increasingly shifting from a transaction-based role to a more strategic treasury model. He noted that rising business complexity and tightening profit margins have made it a priority for treasury teams to focus on financing optimisation and operational cost reduction, while also supporting business expansion into new sectors and markets, and ensuring accurate forecasting.

HSBC Bangladesh said it continues to leverage its extensive global network, advanced digital platforms, and deep market expertise to help businesses manage complexity and unlock new opportunities for sustainable growth.
