Traditional AR and AP finance is no longer enough. With evolving disclosure requirements, tariff pressures, and increasing supplier expectations, treasurers must deliver liquidity and visibility with fewer resources while managing heavier supplier demands.

They discuss how hybrid approaches, such as auction-based supplier financing for lower rates alongside automated dynamic discounting, can optimize AR and AP, strengthen supplier adoption, and deliver measurable EBITDA impact. The conversation also highlights how real-time visibility gives treasurers a true decision cockpit and how removing the lift of supplier onboarding and support enables higher participation and improved governance. https://www.monkeytech.com/
