1097. Insights: When money moves 24/7, can treasury keep up? With J.P. Morgan 10.09.2026 50dkAbout this episode: Money moves around the clock. But can treasury keep up? In this episode of Fintech Insider, in partnership with J.P. Morgan, host Benjamin Ensor is joined by Amy Eckhoff and Ross Webster from J.P. Morgan, alongside Nium’s Heather O'Gorman, to explore what liquidity management looks like in an increasingly real-time financial system. From navigating liquidity across different markets, currencies and accounts to improving visibility, forecasting and control, our panel looks at what it really takes to build a more connected approach to treasury. We also explore how virtual accounts, automation and evolving liquidity structures can help institutions mobilise cash more effectively — and whether modern treasury can become an enabler of global growth rather than simply an operational function.
