Wilco Dado, head of Netherlands, global transaction services at RBS, highlights the importance for corporates with international subsidiaries to secure a global structure: “Cross-border cash control and improvement of interest results are key concerns for all major corporate. We are delighted to be working with TomTom, and we look forward to working with TomTom on future projects.”
