Assess
Listen to stakeholders, map the actual work, and examine cash visibility, banking, processes and controls.
Treasury InFocus is preparing to launch in January 2027, bringing practical treasury advisory, implementation leadership and fractional support to finance teams.
This website offers a preview of the practice and planned services, drawing on Cynthia MacGeagh’s experience in banking and corporate treasury. Client engagements will begin no earlier than January 1, 2027.
Independent treasury advice and implementation leadership for finance teams navigating banking decisions, fragmented cash processes, and operational change.
Begin where your organization needs help. These stages can form one engagement or be scoped individually, with ongoing support available after implementation.
Listen to stakeholders, map the actual work, and examine cash visibility, banking, processes and controls.
Agree on priorities and a roadmap. Define requirements, compare providers and solutions, and make informed decisions.
Coordinate teams and providers through dependencies, testing, rollout, training and operational handoff.
Continue with agreed reviews, guidance and fractional treasury leadership as your team takes ownership.
Deliverables, responsibilities and availability are agreed for each engagement. Post-implementation support is separately scoped.
You may need a clearer understanding of cash and risk, a better banking arrangement, someone to lead an implementation, or ongoing treasury attention. The engagement should follow the business need.
Cash is difficult to see, processes have grown informally, or leadership needs a clearer view of risk and priorities.
Treasury assessment & roadmap ↗You are evaluating banks, financing terms, payment services or technology—and need an informed comparison beyond the sales presentation.
Banking & solution selection ↗A selected bank service or treasury platform needs coordinated execution across finance, operations, technology and providers.
Implementation leadership ↗You need recurring senior treasury attention without immediately adding a full-time position—or your finance team needs support through a period of change.
Fractional treasury leadership ↗Led the TMS RFP, built stakeholder agreement on the selected system, and successfully implemented centralized reporting to replace Excel-based cash positioning.
Work spanning earnings credits, merchant services pricing, check costs and payment rebates—each with its own economics and tradeoffs.
A hospital workflow review revealed the gap between the CFO’s intended process and daily practice, clarifying the need for changes to bring them into alignment.
My career connects banking, credit, investment analysis and corporate treasury. I understand the decisions behind a provider’s proposal and the practical work required inside the client’s organization.
That means asking detailed questions, making tradeoffs clear and staying involved as a decision moves toward execution.
More about my background ↗Services can be engaged individually or in stages. Work directly with me, or through a referral from your CFO adviser, consultant or other trusted partner.
Clear deliverables, practical responsibilities and an agreed scope come first.
