Abstract

In this research it has been analysed the use of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) in the responsibilities of cash management and the references of this survey are the corporations of Basque Country. The results indicate that the ICT more utilized by firms to financial practices are financial software, Internet and electronic banking. Furthermore, this results have permitted us to develop an explanatory model of the use of ICT for the treasurer's functions; management of receivables and payments, liquidity monitoring, short term treasury forecasts, management of bank balances in value data, management of relations with financial institutions, management of short-term needs, management of treasury surpluses and management of interest and exchange rate risks.
