Many thanks to  Societe Generale for hosting and sponsoring the NeuGroup for Large-Cap Treasurers H2 meeting in New York last week. We also want to thank our members who joined us in New York and those members who participated virtually in what was a content-rich agenda which resulted in great sharing on insights to the challenges companies have faced in what continues to be a volatile environment.
A special thanks to Krzysztof âChrisâ Walenczak, Head of Investment Banking and Coverage, and  Donald Sutton , Chairman of Client Coverage Americas for once again assembling such a strong team of colleagues who participated in the meeting and shared insights on a wide variety of topics ranging from the state of the world economy, capital structure in an inflationary environment, sustainability and treasuryâs role, relationship management with the rating agencies and fixed-income investors, and what treasurers need to know about the cost of decarbonization. Societe Generale team members included  Kokou Agbo-Bloua , Global Head of Economics, Cross-Asset and Quant Research,  Jonathan Logan , Head of Strategic & Acquisition Finance Americas,  Marie Clara B. , ESG Client Advisory,  Jacques Ouazana , Head of US Ratings Advisory, and  Karl Pettersen , Chief Sustainability Officer.
