Tearing Down Cash Silos

How Murphy USA improved cash forecasting by opening lines of communication companywide.

By Treasury & Risk Staff | Updated on November 07, 2013

The new company wouldn’t be able to borrow as easily as Murphy Oil can, so treasurer Kristi Clay and manager of cash management Todd Gilreath needed better real-time visibility into their cash position and forecasts. The company engaged a team of Deloitte & Touche LLP advisers led by Carina Ruiz, partner, and Prashant Patri, senior manager, to assist.
