Main Day 1 | 16th September

3:55 PM Trading Workflows Panel: Modernising FX execution: How can you optimise RFQ, streaming, algos and multi-dealer platforms to improve access and control?

Corporate treasuries are reassessing how they execute FX as workflows move away from manual processes and single-bank interactions toward more automated models. This session explores how corporates are modernising workflows, when streaming prices genuinely add value, and where algorithmic tools can support execution without adding complexity. Speakers will discuss how treasuries are making more effective use of multi-dealer platforms and what “good” looks like in an execution environment that prioritises transparency, auditability and control.
