AI is reshaping how treasury professionals analyse information, manage workloads and make decisions.
In this episode, Manoj Panda, Vice President and Treasurer at Bausch + Lomb, draws on more than 20 years of global finance and treasury leadership experience to explain why the greatest risk may not be AI replacing treasury professionals, but AI-enabled colleagues outperforming those who fail to adapt.
Manoj Panda has extensive experience leading capital markets, IPO execution, debt financing, FX risk management and global treasury operations for Fortune 500 and public companies. In his current role as Vice President and Treasurer at Bausch + Lomb he oversees key areas including capital structure, cash management and financial risk management.
Throughout the conversation, Manoj reflects on how experience across risk management, capital markets and treasury operations helped him build the breadth required for senior leadership. He also explains why understanding the business behind the numbers is essential when managing complex financing transactions and communicating with investors, rating agencies and senior stakeholders.
The episode explores how treasurers can become trusted advisers by identifying problems early, presenting practical solutions and building strong relationships across the organisation. Manoj also shares how AI can improve productivity, accelerate decision-making and reduce data constraints, while emphasising that human judgement, technical expertise and the ability to ask the right questions will remain critical.
