He said: “I implore all participants to brainstorm and come up with cash and financial management strategies and practices that will help advance the practice of modern-day cash management. If fully adopted and applied, will greatly help in ensuring that sufficient cash is available to the government as and when needed to meet commitments to make payments, controlling aggregate cash flows within fiscal, monetary and legal limits, and improving the management of government’s domestic borrowing program, as well as facilitating investment of excess or idle cash.”
