help treasury departments manage
requests for letters of credit,
bank guarantees, restricted
cash, surety bonds, parent
company guarantees, comfort
letters, capital expenditures,
cash disbursements, etc.
The rm.Treasury™ software
enables treasury departments to
receive requests from the field
employees globally on 24x7
basis. The software
automatically routes the
requests to an appropriate
reviewer and/or approver using
flexible routing and delegation
rules defined by organization's
policies and procedures. The
system also facilitates the
issuing process for approved
requests. When the request is
fulfilled by a third-party
institution for a fee or
commission (e.g. letters of
credit and bank guarantees), the
system can forward the approved
request to the specified
third-parties (e.g. relationship
banks) for competitive online
bidding.
Today, Exigis has launched
the first rm.Treasury system to
a global Fortune 500 client.
