Podcast: Four Perspectives on How to Drive Value in Financial Processes

Experts from Gelco, Meridian, Metafile, and Ruesch discuss how financial process management can impact revenue, streamline processes, and increase compliance

MINNEAPOLIS, July 10, 2007— A podcast titled, “Four Perspectives on How to Drive Value in Financial Processes,” will offer business finance and accounting professionals a vision of how best practices in areas such as travel & entertainment (T&E) expense management, VAT recovery, A/P automation, and payments can impact an organization’s revenue, streamline processes, and increase policy compliance. To register for the podcast, visit www.gelco.com/drivevalue.

While financial business processes are increasingly automated, integrated, and web-enabled, finance and accounting departments continue to struggle with the complexities of these critical business processes. Gelco Expense Management, Meridian, Metafile, and Ruesch International have complementary capabilities and share the vision that many of these financial processes – while often seen as burdensome administrative functions – can be turned into value drivers for the business with the right business processes in place.

The podcast will offer an expert discussion, addressing questions such as: What can I do to immediately and positively impact accounting or finance functions? How can I improve financial controls and compliance? What trends are emerging in financial automation and outsourcing? And, what are leading organizations doing to optimize their resources?

The podcast panelists are part of Gelco’s strategic alliance program, which brings together a range of best-in-class travel management companies, online booking tools, financial institutions, corporate card, and VAT providers to complement Gelco’s wide range of on-demand expense management services.
