Uncovering treasuries top goals and challenges for 2025
Joseph Bertran
A lack of clarity around political, regulatory and legislative decisions—including the roll out of tariffs—are expected to impact the treasury function. NeuGroup surveyed treasury leaders from nearly 100 large enterprises—96% with annual revenues above $1 billion—to uncover how treasurers are rethinking their priorities, talent strategies, and tech investments: Key insights from the research include:
Profit Enablement: Treasurers are leaning into value creation, with 74% focused on boosting free cash flow, optimizing working capital, and advising on funding strategies to lower capital costs.
Technology & AI Adoption: More than one-third of firms are already using AI in their workflows and 38% plan to adopt it in 2025. Still, only 13% report full cash forecasting automation, signaling room for growth.
Talent & Efficiency:67% of companies plan to keep treasury headcount flat, but a growing number of firms are signaling plans to reduce staff amid cost pressures and automation goals.
