How to protect your payment security is the key question in the emerging threat landscape. In this article, Nomentia's Jouni Kirjola answers key questions about securing corporate payments and preventing payment fraud. By exploring both emerging threats and best practices, we offer practical advice on how businesses can protect themselves from fraud attempts, maintain compliance, and strengthen the overall integrity of their payment processes.

What are the main risks treasury teams need to manage?

Treasury departments face four primary risks: liquidity risk (running out of cash), market risk (FX, interest rates, or commodities), operational risk (process, system, or compliance failures), and counterparty risk (failure of banks, partners, or customers). Effective risk management combines forecasting, visibility, controls, and frameworks to minimize these exposures.
