Corporate treasurers and investment managers are showing an increasing interest in using the internet to improve efficiency and to access information and sophisticated risk evaluation and management tools. There are substantial challenges to market participants in this new world. But companies that duck the e-finance challenge risk being left behind.
Euromoney reviews some of the latest online services provided by leading financial institutions - and by new competitors - to corporate treasurers and risk managers.

Nor does it cover all the electronic products of the participating institutions, only those relevant to treasury and risk management operations.
This gives us a snapshot of what is available for treasurers and risk managers over the internet.
