- 9. Concern about Collaborator Conflict Will pursue… Will avoid… Source “ Long term alliances, exclusive arrangements, long term commitments, joint ventures if necessary. Why? Investment cost and risk growing, along with less players with high capability, leads to stronger alignment to share cost and risk…” “ Partnerships without shared values, goals, and expectations ; these often fail.” CPO in the Auto/ Industrial/Mfg. segment, $1B-$5B We are very actively pursuing long-term alliances and acquisitions of key strategic companies in our operating space. These activities will help strengthen our brand and continue to reach a more diverse customer base. Partnerships in countries which have weak intellectual property laws. Countries with weak laws makes enforcing contracts almost impossible. Courts in those countries not sympathetic to international business law and norms.

- This Hackett Group survey of top executives across all functions regarding their top strategic priorities for 2010 and beyond found similar themes in terms of the need to improve cash flow and working capital, increase efficiencies, and strategic alignment. We have looked at numerous studies regarding the priorities of top executives…..and most come to similar conclusions….manage cash flow and improve working capital, improve process efficiency and effectiveness, improve agility to have greater visibility and control over revenue and costs, align strategies across the enterprise. These key issues have been identified as being extremely important to the success of many companies.
- Moderator: Global commerce and finance are in a tumultuous period. How is this affecting the treasury and cash management operations of companies and the banks that serve them? “ From the corporate perspective, we look at it as the banks’ hoarding. The liquidity is there in the banks, but it is not coming out to the corporates. Banks are not willing to lend to each other, let alone to lend to corporates right now. GE is a big, established name, so we are probably in a better position than most, but the current situation forces us to think about where can we get liquidity—and that is not necessarily from the banks that are providing the best services and the best technological capabilities. The downside to that is, even if we do obtain the credit that we need, we are going to be operating in a less efficient environment. Supply Chain Finance (SCF) technology and bank providers are developing new models for trade finance. New technologies and financing approaches are emerging. The move to a more diverse combination of financing techniques in the supply chain seems to be a longer-term shift. 57% of companies say that such supplier financing techniques will remain a high priority, even when full economic recovery gains momentum. – Demica white paper 2010.
