Where do businesses use FX data?

Reporting• Often only discovered at month-end when distraction of
wrong numbers is most impactful for Finance to correct• Can result in needing to restate financial results
Pricing• Off-market pricing for clients who are savvy about price
checking creates distrust• Potentially leaving revenue on the table
Bad data creates impact

1. Human error– Risk of “cut-and-paste” error
2. Lack of auditability– Not easy to determine source/date– Risk of fraud
3. Lack of consistency– Different rates used by different people
Lack of controls with manual processes

… yet there is rarely a single approach or mechanism in place, and often many layers
of different, enabling technology exist …Why isn’t our enterprise technology already handling this?
1. Lack of Fx standardization mandate or global policy enforcement
2. Frequent M&A w/ lagging post-merger integration efforts
3. Inadequate project team understanding or communication of Fx standards or automation opportunities
4. Innate differences in how different planning, transaction, and reporting tools are selected and/ or structured for Fx mgmt.

Global complexity + fragmentation = reduced efficiency/ effectiveness that can materially distract personnel or misstate results
To develop an effective, sustainable Fx strategy, an organization needs to:
1. Leverage a single, reputable source of truth for Fx rates
2. Centralize and standardize the administration process for Fx rates
3. Standardize how rounding/ precision is applied and calculated
4. Systematically apply and handle multiple acctg./ reporting views
5. Enable leaders and personnel to plan, transact, report and analyze information in their native functional currency
Organizations cannot standardize or automate what they don’t fully understand. - why to focus on it- what to standardize or
automate with technology- how to automate it- which parts of the business to
include- available internal/ external
resources- the delivery model that best
supports the objectives
