In line with the Hellenic Association of Treasurers mission to promote the practice of Treasury through education, collaboration, and knowledge sharing, dedicated Working Groups have been established to produce articles and research papers, conduct benchmarking and analysis, and facilitate discussions, presentations, and networking among association members.
There are currently three (3) active Working Groups, each focusing on the following areas of interest:
Treasury Operations
Focuses on the day-to-day management of an organization’s liquidity and cash flows, including cash management and forecasting, payments and collections, and the maintenance of strong banking relationships. The group also explores treasury systems and technology that support operational efficiency, alongside initiatives aimed at optimizing working capital.
In addition, this area covers intra-group funding and intercompany lending, supported by robust treasury policies and internal controls to ensure consistency, compliance, and operational resilience.
WG Head: Vasiliki Emmanouilidou, Treasury Operations Manager, Page Group
Corporate Finance & Risk Management
Concentrates on the broader strategic and financial framework of an organization, including capital structure planning and funding strategies. The group addresses key areas such as market and financial risk, credit and counterparty exposure, and corporate finance advisory for significant financial decisions.
It also examines investment and asset management practices, ESG and sustainable finance integration, and interactions with regulators and rating agencies to support transparency, governance, and alignment with external stakeholders.
WG Head: Konstantinos Andritsopoulos, Head of Treasury & Investment Strategy, Volton
Research
Dedicated to advancing treasury-related research and analysis on topics of economic, financial, and public-sector importance. The group focuses on areas such as trade balance and public accounts, transfer pricing, country risk premium analysis, and annual government budget assessments and recommendations.
Through research-driven initiatives, the group aims to provide valuable insights, encourage thought leadership, and support informed decision-making within the treasury and finance community.
