How should treasurers best respond to tariff changes?

Tariffs and other policy shifts continue to present a multitude of challenges for treasurers and finance leaders – from currency volatility through to supply chain disruption.

Our webinar explored actionable insights on managing risk, enhancing operational resilience and building future-oriented treasury that can withstand ongoing uncertainties, with expert speakers from HSBC, Weir Group and Oliver Wyman.

3 key takeaways

  1. Treasury is key – playing an increasingly strategic role

    Tariffs, geopolitical risk, and the ensuing market volatility have elevated the strategic importance of the Treasury function. With heightened expectation from the board, treasurers are not only expected to manage cash and risk exposures, but also to ensure operational resilience and strategic readiness to adapt and thrive in an evolving landscape.

  2. Uncertainty and volatility are no longer exceptions – they are the new normal

    Two-thirds of the respondents to HSBC’s latest Trade Pulse survey are reporting supply chain disruption, increased cost and reduction in top line due to tariffs and trade uncertainty. More than 70% see this trend continuing in short and long term. Multiple scenario planning and agility is key to success instead of single, linear plan.

  3. The treasury of the future – data driven and digitally enabled

    A resilient and future-ready treasury is data-driven and digitally enabled, fully taking advantage of AI, APIs and cloud-based solutions. Successful digital treasury transformation is underpinned by investment in data infrastructure, upskilling staff to use digital tools, while working with the right partners to get the best support.
