About this episode
It’s not often you meet a Treasury expert with experience in both the corporate and the banking world with in-depth knowledge of Treasury data security. I am fortunate to have had the chance to interview such a person in this episode of the Treasury Career Corner podcast.
Eva Åkesson is the Former Group Treasurer at Transcom Worldwide AB, a global customer experience specialist providing customer care, sales, technical support, and collections services through their extensive network of contact centres and work-at-home agents.
They have 26,000 customer experience specialists at 50 contact centres and an extensive network of home agents across 22 countries. They deliver services in 33 languages to international brands in various industries.
Eva has a unique background with over 20 years of relevant, valuable Treasury experience from both the corporate and the banking perspective. She also has a strong IT-focussed skill set in evaluating and establishing data security protocols within the Treasury department.
On the podcast we discussed…
- What it’s like to be the sole person in a Treasury department
- Helpful ways to strengthen data security processes in Treasury
- Eva’s unique perspective on Treasury from both the bank and corporate side
- The benefits of finding the right IT system
- The data-related risks to consider when implementing a new system
- Eva explains the term “presidential fraud” and how to mitigate it
