Treasurytech, Inatech's treasury management product allows bunker fuel suppliers to automate and streamline their complex treasury operations, giving them a real-time view of their finances from a single dashboard.

When it comes to treasury management, bunkering companies face a number of specific industry challenges:

- Their financial structure tends to be more transactional.

- Financing is usually acquired from multiple banks and multiple facilities.

- They deal with complex limits and sub-limit.

This means that traditional treasury solutions don't meet bunker fuel suppliers.
