Join U.S. Bank to explore ways to navigate tariff uncertainty, currency volatility, supply-chain disruption, and the risk of foreign cash becoming trapped in overseas accounts. The discussion will explore rethinking international account structures and developing contingency plans that allow accounts to be opened, closed or adapted quickly with changing conditions.  We will investigate cross-border liquidity with a concentration on consolidating foreign currencies, improving visibility and control, and reducing friction in international money movement.  Additionally, we will focus on operational needs to reduce risk, optimize working capital and build resilience in volatile global operating environments.
