Ongoing Case study

AI Copilot for Treasury Operations at a Spanish Payment Orchestration Platform

Client Profile

A Spanish payment orchestration platform with 125 employees managing settlement flows for over 4,000 merchants across Southern Europe. The company processes approximately €900M in annual settlement flow. Operating in a highly competitive market with thin margins, the company faced significant pressure to optimize treasury performance while handling complex multi-currency settlement, payment timing optimization, and liquidity management.

Challenges

The client’s treasury team struggled with increasingly complex liquidity management challenges as transaction volumes grew and currency diversification expanded. Their existing approaches created both operational inefficiencies and missed optimization opportunities.

Challenges

  • Forecasting Limitations: Manual cash forecasting achieved only 68% accuracy beyond a one-week horizon, forcing excessive cash buffers that reduced investment returns.

  • Currency Exposure Challenges: Growing multi-currency operations created complex FX risk management requirements that exceeded the capabilities of spreadsheet-based analysis.

  • Decision Speed Constraints: Treasury decisions required consolidating data from multiple systems and manual analysis, creating delays that limited optimization opportunities in fast-moving markets.

Aspagnul Solution

We developed a sophisticated treasury intelligence system providing comprehensive visibility, accurate forecasting, and decision support across all treasury operations. The solution combined advanced liquidity modeling, currency optimization, and scenario analysis capabilities in an intuitive interface designed specifically for treasury professionals.

Aspagnul Solution

  • AI-Enhanced Cash Forecasting: Machine learning models analyzed transaction patterns, seasonal factors, and business drivers to predict cash positions with enhanced accuracy up to 30-day horizons.

  • Multi-Scenario Decision Support: The system enabled treasury professionals to model different strategies for liquidity management, currency hedging, and settlement timing with comprehensive analysis of financial implications.

  • Treasury Workflow Integration: Rather than creating a separate analytical tool, the solution embedded intelligence directly into existing treasury workflows, providing decision support at precise moments when key judgments occurred.

Integration Approach

The treasury intelligence system connected with the client’s financial ecosystem through multiple secure integration points. A comprehensive data integration layer established connections with the settlement platform, banking systems, and accounting software to create a unified view of liquidity positions and movements. The solution implemented specialized API connections with market data providers for real-time rates, yield curves, and FX information essential for accurate modeling.

Custom database integration provided access to historical transaction patterns and seasonal factors while maintaining strict security controls. All integrations maintained end-to-end encryption with comprehensive logging for audit purposes.

Compliance Framework

The solution addressed multiple regulatory and governance frameworks relevant to treasury operations:

International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

Appropriate treatment of financial instruments, currency positions, and hedging activities in alignment with accounting standards

Payment Services Directive 2 (PSD2)

Compliance with requirements regarding settlement funds, safeguarding, and payment institution operational obligations

Bank of Spain Reporting Requirements

Business Impact

The treasury intelligence system transformed the company’s financial operations from a necessary support function into a strategic value center. The improvements in liquidity management directly enhanced company profitability through reduced borrowing costs and improved investment returns, contributing measurably to overall company margins in a business with traditionally thin profit structures.

The enhanced forecasting and decision-support capabilities enabled the treasury team to implement more sophisticated strategies previously considered too complex for practical implementation. This capability provided particular advantage during market volatility periods, with the company maintaining optimal positions while competitors struggled with reactive approaches.

The improved treasury performance supported the company’s international expansion strategy by efficiently managing multi-currency operations without proportional increases in team size or risk exposure. The client has since expanded their engagement with us to implement similar intelligence capabilities across their financial planning and merchant analytics functions.
