Beyond Borders: The Treasury Infrastructure Powering Global Growth
Expansion and change are the constants in global business. Great treasury turns them into an advantage. In this episode, Bethany May, U.S. Lead for Payments Industry Advocacy, sits down with Lori Schwartz, Global Head of Treasury Services at J.P. Morgan Payments, to talk about what it really takes to support multinational clients through growth and change: entering new markets like the United Arab Emirates (UAE), taming multi-currency complexity and keeping control as the world demands ever-faster payments. Their conversation covers the rise of free trade zones as launching pads for corporate treasury centers, how APIs and automation are moving technology upstream and client stories spanning programmable payments and real-time liquidity. Along the way, Lori shares her cardinal rule of payments (never shall a payment fail due to lack of funding) and her advice for staying ahead: stay interested, stay humble.
